We had good time our stay with the accommodation. Perfect size for our family, two kids and with little dogs. Needed to drive to the beach everyday but it was just 15-20min drive then we can go everywhere so not too far. Love the cleanness, amenities and large size of fridge.

Clean, Comfortable & Convenient

We had a fantastic stay! Communication with Neil was excellent from the start—super responsive and helpful. The house itself was spotless—immaculately clean, tidy, and incredibly well-equipped, which made our stay so relaxing and enjoyable. Honestly, the photos don’t do it justice—it’s even better in real life. Added bonus: it’s within easy walking distance to the Dunwich shops. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!
