Location great, a street away from the sea front. The grumbles would be , we asked for a second door key, due to us carrying on our day to day , work sleep repeat. This was refused, which when you are paying a lot of money to stay here, asking for a second key is not much to request. The accommodation was dirty on arrival, black dog hairs everywhere, cupboard dirty, bowl had dried food on them. Window dirty. Skirting boards covered in dust , hair and spillage.

The owners have gone to great lengths to make it really homely and provide everything you could need for a break. Very clean and tidy with a fab enclosed garden. There was an issue with the shower whilst I was there but the owner was onto it in a flash arranging the supplier to attend.

Lots of shops and other facilities within a short distance. Very comfortable stay. Only just enough room on the parking area for my Mazda 6 estate. Could do with a mat in shower as the floor is a bit too textured.
