Stephen
Very well looked after. Decor was simple but suited the appt. All bedding and towels were of high standard. Cannot recommend this appt. enough. Owners had put milk, bread, biscuits and cereal out for us, and even biscuits for our dog. They were so helpful.

Jane met us at the property to welcome us and give us a quick tour, explain the keys, etc, and left us some essentials including milk, bread, tea and coffee. The flat was very clean and comfortable, with everything we needed, and had a superb view of the beach and sea. We would certainly recommend this property to others and will bear it in mind the next time weâre up there.

The host's attention to detail was incredible, especially when it came to the food. She thoughtfully provided a starter pack that included milk, bread, cereal, butter, and some lovely marmalade, making us feel so welcome right from the start. She also added a lovely touch with fresh flowers in the apartment. On top of that, she was amazing with our little boy and even offered to help with our bags when we arrivedâa kind and thoughtful gesture that really made a difference. The apartment itself was lovely, cozy, and had everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. But what really stood out was the breathtaking view of the beachâwe could gaze at it all day! The beach is right opposite the apartment, making it a perfect location for beach lovers like us. Blyth Beach was fantastic, and The Breeze Lounge is a gem, offering fabulous service, delicious food, and great coffee. We also took a boat trip to the Holy Islands, which was another highlight of our trip. Our entire family loved every bit of our stay, and we highly recommend this apartment to others. We can't wait to come back again!
