This is the best holiday home we have ever rented. Warm, comfortable, fully fitted with every single item you could actually require. There was nothing that we needed that wasnt there. The house was beautifully decorated for Xmas and little added extras provided fabulous. We had 3 dogs with us and they were delighted with the wonderful enclosed garRead moreden and the hamper of treats. The bedding was crisp and spotless and the towels plentiful and fluffy.. and what a shower will definitely be back. Tom, Clare and Mike are so helpful. Hide

A lovely house, very spacious and comfortable. Our dogs enjoyed the good sized secure garden. The area is fabulous with many sandy beaches a short distance away. Most were dog friendly. Very quiet and peaceful. Hope to return in the future.

Cant fault this accommodation, spotlessly clean & had everything we needed. Tom & Clare were at hand if we needed them for anything. Sky TV, sports & movies were a bonus. Wi-Fi wasnt too bad, a bit hit & miss. Towels & bedding were also provided. Very peaceful location & a short walk down to the beach. The camp next door had a takeaway, shop & clubRead more. You will need a car to explore the surrounding areas but there is a bus that runs every hour that you can use. We spent a lovely three weeks there & will definitely return again. Hide
