Whilst the communal area could have done with a some paint and the external approach to the apartment block entrance needed some TLC the internals of the apartment itself were well presented and exceptionally clean. There were some very nice touches by the owners/ managers of the property that made us feel very "welcomed". The weather was exceptionally kind to us every day of our stay. Parking was in a garage beneath the flat which would be little tight for anything much bigger than a mini. The property was in an ideal location for the beach , the shops and many walks. A most enjoyable holiday. ##### Stephen D.

We'd love to stay here again. ##### Chris R.
