About the host
Hosted by Hugo King
About the owner: Lives in Somerset. Year purchased: 2007. Unique benefits of the property: The property sits just behind the main square in Portscatho so all amenities in the centre and the beach/Lugger are just a minute walk away. The property benefits from private parking for 2 cars which is almost unique for centrally located properties. This is our family holiday house. Our children and grand-children use the house for their annual holiday so inside is fully set up for family needs.
