Summary
The accommodation was spacious, clean, and well-equipped for families, with a great location close to the harbour and beach. Guests appreciated the welcome pack and comfortable beds. Parking was sometimes a challenge, and suggestions for improvement included spare keys and more cutlery for larger groups.
