One of the best things about this house is while it has great beach access it is very private…something that all the massive new ‘fence to fence’ houses have sacrificed The house is a little old but maybe that’s a good thing… ##### Lewis M.

Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tim M. 9 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect beach holiday cottage! We have had the loveliest time at this cottage. Very comfortable inside and out on the deck (looks new!). The kitchen is well equipped with lots of extras provided. The beach is just outside the back gate and we could walk to everything in the local village (supermarkets, fish and chip shops, pubs). We recommend this highly to any family and friend groups for a beach getaway. ##### Tim M.

Great little deck and outdoor area. ##### Jody Q.

The property was beautifully clean and welcoming. Some of the decor and kitchen supplies were a little tired but it kind of added to the experience. Lots of board games for the kids, a true holiday destination. Thanks Rae, for sharing your family home. Loved seeing the photos and history of the house too. ##### Kathleen F.
