This house really suits my family. It's the third time we have stayed here! Enough space for people to find some peace if they want it and a lovely dining space for family meals and activities. The location is excellent, wetsuits on and cross the rd and you are in the sea, or pack up the Kubb (excellent beach game) and draw a court on the beach for an evening match! In previous years we have seen whales, dophins and seals from the beach. Nothing this year but the bay window is great for beach watching. Hopefully we'll be back next year! ##### Jane B.
