A fabulous holiday, an absolutely wonderful place to stay. The access to the beach, the beach itself. The magnificent windows to the view & the house had pretty much all you could need aside from a bit more outside furniture choice. Neil’s has been a great host & we would highly recommend this home to everyone. Thank you.

Magic spot for girls weekend. Well equipped and easy. We will stay again , for sure.Two suggestions, outdoor furniture, we couldn’t find any. Also spare blankets in every wardrobe for us winter beach lovers and maybe a couple of arm chairs. The couches are designed for young backs .Probably the best equipped beach house we have rented.

We arrived and were immediately amazed by not just the scenery but the home itself. Such quick and easy access to the beac and beautiful expansive views. We had a family of 11 and every single person rated this holiday a 10/10. The house provided everything we needed and plenty of space for everyone. Outdoor shower was a hit after the beach especially it having warm water. Hosts were lovely and very quick to answer any questions. Cant rate this place enough!!!
