Meet the owner upon leaving the property and they were really nice. The neighbour is friendly too. The house has everything you could want from a holiday let and is very modern, clean and tidy with comfy beds. Great location and nice treats left to enjoy after the long journey down. Thanks so much for a great stay.

Unfortunately the weather wasnât brilliant enough for the beach but we managed to do something every day including walking on the beach at Instow with Bailey and that was her favourite thing to do. It is so central to be able to visit lots of different places. We did find that the water was so soft we were slipping in the bath so we bought a shower mat which we have left for other guests to use.
