We had a great week away, this is our second stay at Solsken. We arrived to some lovely goodies, scones, wine, biscuits and milk which is so thoughtful. The cottage is kept immaculate, very clean and well equipped. The beach is just a few minutes walk away. Hosts Nicky and Andrew are very accommodating. The only thing we found a little uncomfortable was the bed but apart from that it was perfect. ##### Hayley Nichols ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hayley N. 2 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful apartment!
