Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Would recommend this property to our friends and relatives. Lovely building with lots of history. The village has two good pubs within a short walk. Excellent beaches are a short drive away. The parking permit for Putsborough beach was excellent - saved 14/day in parking charges.
