Very comfortable house within walking district to cinema, supermarket, shops and beach. Very well equipped kitchen, lovely all weather front veranda with daybed. Bad TV reception but really not there to watch tv so didn’t bother us. Would definitely recommend.

Hassle-Free

This holiday house is very unusual as it is so well equipped! It made our holiday hassle-free.....could we suggest the only addition would be beach towels for those with airline weight restrictions!
