This could be emphasised. Great property; good hot tub and garden table. Great rooms. Fully equipped. No need to bring your own towels (again needs emphasis). We had a great time.

Lovely property close to the beach and train station not much in the surrounding area but there is a convenience store in the village, perfect if youâre looking to get away from it all, property is very well equipped with some very thoughtful touches including the lovely welcome pack, only minor irritation was next doorâs dog that barked constantly all throughout the day but obviously out of the control of the people who own the holiday lets hands
