The house was fine and acceptable for the purpose of our stay.The kitchen is really well equipped for home cooking (be warned..the supermarket is VERY expensive & the restaurants are over priced).There are a lot of things at the house (cards, games, play station 2) to do if the wester isn't beach appropriate.The house is a pleasent stroll to the shops and pubs.

A perfect place to relax.

We really enjoyed staying in the White House, our dogs were very happy in the courtyard and garage, and we had lots of spaces where we could relax and unwind. The property is a great location to the main street and very comfortable.

Well equipped house with new kitchen and effective heating.

Very comfortable property. Everything we needed for a short stay. My only complaint was poor water pressure in the ensuite shower.
