House was comy and well equipped. Excellent quiet location to explore local area and further afield. Super having Morrisons just up the road.

Plenty of parking space for 2/3 cars and I would say that you really need a car to get to the beach front and the main restaurants area. But this did not detract from a lovely stay, and thanks to Nicola for quickly sorting out a problem with the downstairs shower temperature.
