Beachside Bliss

We had the most relaxing stay at the castle over the weekend. The highlight was being able to bring our furry family member. The house is well appointed for pets with water bowls on both enclosed balconies. It is worth noting the the fenced backyard is quite a low fence so might not suit tall dogs or dogs prone to jumping. Foosball and table tennis were an added bonus that came in handy when we had a storm roll through. Great views from the upstairs living areas over the ocean. Good location, only 15 minute walk into main town centre. Property managers were very easy to deal with, check in/out was seamless. Highly recommend this property, would definitely stay here again.
