The house was small and cosy, with a view of the sea from main bedroom. Garden was big, but a shared one with the house you go past to gain access to the property( also there appears to be a small dog that lives there). It was clean and had the necessary equipment required.On a lovely day the front door was left open for a breeze to come through off the sea which was so relaxing.
