On our arrival we found the property was not fit to be occupied. It was undergoing re-decoration. It was a late booking and owner had not been advised of our booking. We were left struggling to find somewhere to stay for the at 4:30pm on a Friday night!

Fantastic location, plenty of parking, everything you need (home from home) However the property is tired and needs some tlc. The garden is overgrown and the hedges are unkept which obstruct the sea views. Overall I would definitely recommend the property.
