Mr & Mrs Watkeys
Fantastic place to stay, the house itself was clean and warm and had everything you’d expect. The kitchen was small but wasn’t a problem. Towels and bedding were very good quality. Water was constantly hot which is a bonus and the views from the house and patio were exceptional. Patio furniture and seat pads provided too which was good. There were 4 adults in our party and was very comfortable, the area has great walks to loe bar, across the beach, around the harbour and there’s always something going on from boats sailing out to locals {and tourists) braving the waters in the outer harbour (we went in March) and there’s always surfers enjoying the waves. All in all a great holiday

What a great location - right by the "splashiest" bit of the harbour! Really enjoyed my stay in this well appointed house. Great for couples and small families.
