The property was clean, well laid out for 2 + 2 family & parking good considering space constraints

We recently stayed for 2 nights. The weather was absolutely superb & enhanced what was a beautiful location & villa. The view from the balcony in apartment #1 was stunning. The villas aligning the bay reminded me a lot of Monaco - very stylish, but with space at such a premium, optimum use was essential. We were allocated car parking slot #1, which was off--road, directly outside the main entrance and frankly essential to remove any stress / hassle of trying to find a space on arrival @ ~11pm. I had a couple of email exchanges with the proprietor Steve before making the journey. His instructions were precise, timely & gave me everything we needed. All in all, this was a great short break. The surrounding town typified an English seaside location but the seafront was very nice with lots of memorable views and places to re-hydrate / fuel up for long walks. The only minor negative point of the whole experience was that access to / from the villa gardens to sea level / beach front was blocked as there was on-going renovation, but this had nothing to do with the owners of the villa I hasten to add!
Stayed 2 nights in May 2018
