The beautiful beach is a short walk away from the property and the owners and neighbours were so welcoming, would love to go back. The room is beautifully finished and everything has been thought of to make your stay as easy and relaxing as possible. ##### Andrew D.

As it’s up to the previous tenants to wash dishes, they should be checked before new tenants arrive. I had to wash every dish I used before using them. ##### Catherine L. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Deb O. 27 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute, clean and compact Being a studio unit this is quite a small property - recommend it if you are going out doing other things. Bed is comfortable and instructions about locality excellent. A couple of small things would make it even better - a small stand under the television would be great to out your toiletries etc as the bathroom is very compact. The paper towel and tissue box were both almost empty (luckily i brought some) and although having a Nespresso was greatly appreciated over the public. Holidays 4 capsules over a 3 day booking when cafes were closed was disappointing. I would also recommend replacing the stools at the little bench on the landing or fixing the unstable leg. They are after all the only place to sit apart from the kitchen table. These are little things that could be improved. Overall it is very good and very close to a path to the beach. ##### Deb O.
