Great Location

Great location but overall experience underwhelming. Multiple issues with the accommodation- dirty bbq on arrival, rusted outdoor setting, broken lamp in bedroom, smoke detector issues to name a few. Emailed through our issues to give them a heads up for the next guests and received no reply.

Just perfect

Excellent location, so close to beach and town, but far enough away from the crowds. The property was clean, spacious and had everything we needed. Pleasantly surprised to find we had a garage to put the car and bikes in, as well as access to boogie boards and beach stuff. Would highly recommend.
