Customer Reviews
It is a lovely and comfortable space, in a great location and a short walk to the beach. The host and agent are extremely helpful and quick to respond. I particularly liked the warming fire on a cold December night! A place I would love to return to in the summer and hopefully be able to take the boat out!
