Great location with easy access north, south, east and west. It is in a tourist development and the outside on arrival appears rather urban but inside it was comfortable and clean. The small kitchen had all you are likely to need with bonus of an air fryer and sharp knives (unusual in a holiday let!). We did not like the high fixed dining table and bar stools, not comfortable for a relaxing meal. An irritation was difficulty in closing the bathroom door as the handle and catch are defective - needs repair or .replacement.
