Easy access to the beach and great fishing off the pier. Plenty of of room to park our vehicles under the house when it rains. Definitely coming back ##### Leslie J. This review is from a guest who booked and stayed through a partner site and can't be verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### magali m. 13 Dec 2025 #### Weekend Fishing Trip We booked a stay at this property for my birthday. Home was very spacious and clean. There were plenty of towels. Kitchen had dishes/silverware/pots/pans that made eating in easy and convenient. Be sure to bring spices if you’re going to be cooking. The highlight for our group was the private lighted fishing dock, cleaning station and all of the seating available outdoors. Our family really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again in the future! ##### magali m. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [5 Star Hotels in Malvern](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Malvern-Hotels.s50-0-d4986.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Marina Court Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weymouth-Hotels-Marina-Court-Hotel.h24454235.Hotel-Information) > > [Pensions Annecy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Annecy-Pensions.d2532-aaPensions.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [travelodgeuk Hotels in Paris](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d179898--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Balgownie Estate Yarra Valley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Balgownie-Estate-Vineyard-Resort-Spa.h2614700.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Zakopane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Zakopane-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d5067-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [nhhotels Hotels in Dijon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dijon-Hotels-NH-Hotels.0-0-d1009--bNHHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Dolphin Key Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Dolphin-Key-Resort.h1632691.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Eko Atlantic](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Eko-Atlantic-Lagos-Hotels.0-n6354415-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Winery Hotels in Umbria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Umbria-Winery-Hotels.0-0-d6048668-tWineryHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Cottages Rowrah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rowrah-Cottages.d6361535-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Santorini](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels.d177970.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Bishop's Stortford (STN) to Naples (NAP)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/stn/nap/london-to-naples) ### Cars > [Car hire in Spalding](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Spalding.d6085049.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Lagos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Lagos.d5292.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Playgolf Bournemouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Playgolf-Bournemouth-Bournemouth.d553248621555737213.Attraction) > > [Salts Mill](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salts-Mill-Shipley.d553248621532494042.Attraction) > > [Assington Barn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Assington-Barn-Sudbury.d553248621561945798.Attraction) > > [Kirribilli House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirribilli-House-Kirribilli.d6208694.Attraction) > > [Lublin Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lublin.d5058.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Velankanni Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Velankanni.d6130348.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
