Property owner Julia was excellent, very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We had a balcony room which gave us extra space during our stay. Balcony is small but adequate for 2 people to sit out and enjoy the sea view and fresh air. Bed was comfortable. Property is very clean and well presented. Lovely outdoor pool and garden area.

A cracker of a hotel

A really cracking hotel, nothing too much trouble for the owners who had thought of minor details to ensure a good experience. Would definitely stay here again, location good, plenty of parking and a good breakfast.
