The apartment is very tasteful, high quality and very clean. The location is great, with a view of the sea and its own garage. The hosts lovingly presented various treats as a welcome, such as scones, wine and waffles. It couldn't be better.

Couple getaway

Very relaxing early spring holiday. The apartment was very clean with everything you need and more. The freshly prepared meal and bottle of wine was a very special touch which was much appreciated. The view of the sea from the apartment was amazing, we even had a couple of days when we could sit in the garden and watch the sea in the sunshine. Highly recommend a stay.

Stunning

I booked this property for a 4 night stay to celebrate my husbands 70th we arrived to find not only a beautiful apartment and location but a home cooked meal in the fridge and lots of little extras. We are so delighted with our experience we decided to stay a couple extra nights. If you want a nice chilled out break with views of the waves and surfers this is the place to come. Area has wonderful coastline and lots of walks.

Fantastic place with everything you might need

We absolutely loved our stay here. The property has everything you could need for a lovely stay by the sea, with the most comfortable lounger ever! We happily spent hours just laying on the lounger looking out at the sea. There were lots of lovely welcoming touches such as bread and milk left, a cream tea and fresh flowers, which made us feel especially welcome. It was a bonus to have an outside area and table and chairs. We can't wait to book again!
