"This was the second time we have stayed at Saltworks, and it was just as perfect this time round. The property is right on the beach with stunning views. The house was very comfortable with plenty of spaces for our family, there is a well equipped kitchen and a lovely open fire for the cooler evenings.The kids enjoyed bodyboarding at the beach and we saw the International Space Station pass overhead.We would highly recommend a stay here and look forward to another stay sometime!"
