To take it to an 11 clothing storage in back room would be appreciated just a pain nowhere to store things at all in there but loved the garden big yet not feeling overlooked the dogs were very safe and the small things like books and games made us feel like we didn't have to be out all the time looking for things to do. The hot tub is amazing too. Really can't fault our stay and really looking forward to staying again. The parking can be a bit of a pain but that's only when a neighbour parked me in totally ( more than once same one did it) but other neighbour moved to allow me out with no issues. There's space to be found further up the street if needed. I was here in some bad weather and imaging using the garden in the summer would be amazing.

Loved that it was only a 10 min walk to the beach, plenty of space to walk with the dog and nice cafes. Hosts were close by which proved really helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely keep in mind for a return visit.
