Perfect for pets & nice easy walk to the beach

Nice size yard & well secured fencing if you have a dog. An easy 10-15 min walk to the beach & town center. House is neat & tidy & was perfect for what we needed.

Lovely and simple. Great for kids.

We stayed for a couple of nights with our baby and 4yo. The accomodation was basic, but in a really nice way and we had absolutely everything we needed. The kids loved the toys and board games. Thank you!

relaxing getaway

The house is simple but has all the essentials and a well set up kitchen perfect for self catering. It's rare to find a pet friendly stay and our dogs loved roaming all day in the big, securely fenced yard. Sam was very quick and easy to communicate with. Thanks for an easy xmas getaway

Lovely!

We really enjoyed the stay, the photos don't do it justice. It looks lovely, functional and is not too far to walk to the beach. Will definitely want to return.
