Beach side holiday unit

8/10 Good

"Actual place was nice, but it was up 2 flights of steps which was difficult with having dogs for toileting. The toilet area also had massive holes which were quite dangerous for the dogs. We did have a small trailer which made parking slightly difficult. If it was on 1 level for pet friendly, would have been perfect. My fault for not paying super close attention to the listing. The host was lovely and very responsive and all instructions were clear."
