Staying in Middleton
This is a very nice house just at the right place close to the beach. It is in a quite neighborhood. The house is well equipped with all what we needed, nothing fancy but exactly what we needed. In particular we were very positive surprised about all the facilities in the kitchen including a drinking water filtration system. the communication with the owner was easy and they responded very quickly to inquiries. We would come there any time again.
