Great location
Located on one of the main streets there are plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance. The only thing missing from this two bedroom apartment is dedicated parking which can be tricky if you want free parking or expensive for paid parking (the cheapest we found was directly behind the apartment and was 2 overnight and 1.90 per hour between 7:30 am and 7pm or 24.8 per day)

short girlie getaway for 3
Clean, light and airy apartment, perfectly central to shops and beach. The only issue we had was opening the windows for fresh air. The High street is full of independent businesses which is refreshing and friendly. I would recommend pre-booking restaurants as they are small and a walk-in impossible in my experience. Parking is very expensive too. All that said it's an enchanting area and would book again.

Great location
The flat was very clean and bright and provided pretty much everything we needed. The only negative was that the beds in the second bedroom were very hard The location is great, a couple of minutes from the habour. Parking is pretty expensive but there is a car park immediatey behind the flat. We would recommend a stay there.
