The entrance hall & high ceilings are beautiful. Comfy beds, powerful shower & luxurious bath. Unfortunately, the shine was taken off due to the property not being particularly clean. We had to clean cutlery & crockery before using it, cleaned the bathroom storage container & the dining table & coasters were sticky & crumbs. Light fittings were very dusty & badic repairs not done (e.g. stips coming off kitchen cupboards) & clock batteries not replaced. That being said, the location to the beach & other facilities would make us consider the property for future visits.

However, it is now! In fact we asked several times via email & whatapp about parking but got no reply which meant when we were informed, the week before our visit, we had to arrange paid off site parking for one car. The image of the property also gave the impression of ample parking.

Itâs around 10 minute walk to the promenade once there around another 10 minutes to the town. There are several supermarkets around. The bus service is very good which we used all the time didnât use the car and only £2 each way. I will certainly be back next year.
