Very comfortable and clean little beach house. Had everything you needed for a great stay, the fully fenced yard was fantastic for the dogs. Quick walk down to the river and a 3 minute drive to the beach. Awesome pizza shop and a pretty good pub within walking distance. We’ll definitely be back!

Everything about our stay at Blue Haven exceeded our expectations. The house was very comfortable, clean and well equipped with everything we needed and more. It is so close to everything, an easy walk to shops, beach and the river. Our dog had the best time ever, as did we. Can't wait till we can go back again, definitely for even longer!
