Delightful, well located property

We had a lovely time, here for 6nights. Beaches were close by, with a small store/servo and (very popular) fish and chip shop within 200m. The villa was well presented, nicely decorated and had everything we needed including a nice outdoor area. Overall a very nice place for a small group to stay at.

The property is modern, furnished very nicely and it has the most comfortable beds. The kitchen was well equipped and the washing machine and dryer was very handy as we were visiting our son at Uni and I caught him up on all his washing! Asty's is only 50 metres away and has delicious food. You do need a car to stay here as it is a little far to walk into Port. Overall, the property was fabulous and Jill was great to deal with.

We had such a wonderful stay at Jill's property. She was excellent to deal with. The house was perfect. It had everything you would and even more. A lot of thought has gone into making sure you feel at home. The location was great, a short walk to Shelly Beach and a short drive into the town centre. Highly recommend!

Very happy

The property was as I expected or better. It was clean and felt well looked after. Everything was working and in good condition. The host left nice treats for us on arrival and responded quickly to messages. The location was quiet and we really enjoyed our short walk to the beach for a morning swim. I recommend staying here.
