This place is huge

The photos just don’t give the idea of how much space this place has. A lot of places may have beds for a couple of families to share, but this place has the living space to go with it. A great range of books and toys to entertain if the weather is not great. You can even see the beach and sea when cooking.

Fantastic family get together

It was such an incredible week. The house was huge and well equipped, right opposite beach. The house is well built and so warm. We had the fires on most nights and didn’t need to have our jumpers on lol. Just a perfect week really, huge window overlooking the beach access, saw the horses and their riders all going to and fro from beach. All the dog walkers.
