Really big comfy bed, big shower and a really nice location - although brace yourself for the hill climb from the beach. It’s a short walk to all amenities but you need to have a certain fitness level for it, or a car. The accommodation is far nicer than the photographs display. The hosts were excellent. We had a free eat stay and love the beach bum vibe of Coledale.

Coalface is a special place, lovely peaceful gardens to wander at your leisure and sit and listen to the wonderful birds. You feel you are in a different world, quite and peaceful yet minutes from great cafes shops and beaches. Truly there can’t be many places like Coalface. Carol and Brad were gracious hosts and very helpful, I would absolutely recommend Coalface, it’s a very special place!
