Jennie even gave the recipe to our son who loves baking!The accommodation itself is excellent - cosy and kitted out with everything you need. The patio area was a particular favourite and we enjoyed all our meals outside.Thank you so much Jennie and Andy for a very special time.

Fabulous holiday let. Clean, comfortable and everything you could wish for on a relaxing break…and the views!!!!! Spectacular. Andy & Jennie are excellent hosts and very generous with a welcome cream tea on arrival. 5 minute walk to a lovely pub with good food and a 5 minute walk to the harbour. Pebble beach the opposite way with fairly steep steps down. For those more adventurous a walk over to Hele Bay. It’s not far but some steep ups and downs. Worth it when you get there. Highly recommend a trip on the Princess boat and for eats in the town go to St James tea rooms. All in all an excellent getaway. Thankyou!
