We had a lovely stay at beach view and love its retro vibe. It was in the perfect location for exploring the coast. The property felt really spacious and the little fenced in garden was a real bonus for the dogs - and to sit out in the February sun and enjoy the view. Talking of views there is a sea view from all the main windows - and the beach is literally a 30 second walk. There are plenty of cafes and restaurants within easy reach. Amble private parking which is very handy this close to the beach - I can imagine it gets busy in summer. The property was cosy and warm and had everything needed - including washing machine and dish washer. We met the owner Duncan who was really friendly and helpful. Will definitely return to this little gem of a place.

This is our 5th time staying here, we love it, and the doggos too. Great location, and lovely sitting area outside. The host Duncan is really nice, and helpful. Will be back later on in the year ☀️
