House had great indoor outdoor flow. Relaxing outdoor garden with BBQ. Lovely touches with beach towels, plunger coffee and use of Boogie boards.

We had a fantastic few days staying here and couldn’t fault the house at all. It was spotlessly clean, had everything that we could possibly need and even though it’s down a shared driveway, the garden felt private. Literally the only negative was that there was a bit of a party house next door but I’m assuming that they were holidaymakers too so probably won’t be there again! ##### D O.
