A great place to stay for location of beaches. Clean, tidy, Parking was easy and the house was well equipped with a great shower in the bathroom. The laundry room was brilliant for drying off the dogs and the dog wash in the garden with warm water. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Great stay overall.
