Lovely property in a great position

We enjoyed a relaxing break in this lovely property. Everything is well thought out and it’s well equipped with all we needed. It’s a short walk to the water and cafes. There’s a well fenced garden where our small dog could wander safely. Vicky, the owner was Very helpful.

Wonderful home near town

The property is so comfortable, clean and with everything you could need. The location is within walking distance to town. The Owner Vicky has done a magnificent job furnishing the house, and was very good at communicating with us. We had a few questions which Vicky dealt with promptly. I would love to return.

Exquisite location, house and amenities

We stayed for two nights and loved the style of the house with all the extra touches making our stay so relaxing. The house is in a fantastic location close to the beach and the main street. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch enjoying a bevy and the cool sea breeze. The little poodle loved the fenced back garden which was gorgeous and a joy to relax in. The hosts were responsive and responded quickly to any queries.
