We had a lovely stay in the house. The house was as described and good location. Parking on the property and road parking a short walk. Kitchen was well equipped and ample fridge and freezer space. Great to have a utility room. As we had 3 dogs between us it was great to have an enclosed garden which was well maintained. Also had the use of a BBQ. Lovely house with easy access to beaches and wood walks. We had a fab time and was impressed with all communication which was responsive. Would definitely revisit, thank you.
