Lovely updated, very clean beach cottage. Beautiful deck overlooking the ocean for which we spent much time. Well appointed and stocked with all amenities one could want from beach towels, chairs, coffees & teas, toiletries, etc. The kitchen was beautifully appointed with high end appliances. Very close to all shopping and restaurants. We enjoyed our stay.

Don't know whether to call it a cottage, cabin or carriage - because it's actually two carriages and a bit more. Anyway, it's great.

Short relaxing stay by beach

Myself, 4 kids ages 9-23, 2 dogs! A fantastic few days away! The house is well equipped, clean and cozy! A very homely feel, love the layout and my 8 yr daughter loved the quirky little bunk bed in the small kids room!! That was a bonus :) plenty to do nearby, but loved just stepping out onto the beach, and sitting on balcony watching/listening to the sea 💕 we would def be back here next time we need a few days away! Thank you soo much xx
