The fact that it was near the beach was our main inspiration - it met our needs however we had to leave early in the morning so it was a 'practical' visit for us & not a relaxing one although we did get a walk along the beach on the evening of the arrival

Great Bach, ideal location

Our family had a great stay at Pete and Sues Bach. Great being able to walk to the beach so quickly and without having to cross a road. The outside shower for after swimming is genius and plenty of room outside for the kids to run around. Inside there is everything you need to relax and enjoy a super relaxed stay. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect for what we needed

Really impressed with this little place to stay - we needed a place just to stay the night and the hosts were very accommodating and offered us an early check in/late check out (which we didn’t use but was massively appreciated). Everything was communicated extremely well and this place was perfect for our requirements. Thank you very much for having us
