We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the log cabin. Check in was super easy, and the house was lovely and clean, even down to sparkling clean drinking glasses. The house is a little older, and more modest in terms of the bathroom (especially with several people staying), but still perfectly adequate. Beds are very comfortable. The house has a lovely friendly feel and the large seaside deck is fabulous. What a gorgeous view of the sea! Wow. Communication with the host was easy; Rod's responses were always prompt and helpful. We also appreciated that there was a full set of instructions for the house and all appliances therein. We would definitely consider staying again.
Had a wonderful stay though too short, the property was clean, the views magnificent, very peaceful and the hosts were very kind and extremely helpful. Will stay there again and would highly recommend this property/lovely hosts
