We stayed there for a couple of nights with our family. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful they even allowed us an early check-in, even though it wasnt included in the agreement, and we are very grateful for that! The location is absolutely fantastic, with the beach nearby. The only small isue was that it was a bit difficult for our elderly parents to walk down because of the steep slope. However, the hosts recommended a few scooter rental places, which solved the problem perfectly. The house was very clean and well-maintained absolutely nothing to complain about! We would definitely recommend this place. A big thank you to Jane and Paul!

Lovely modern apartment with everything you would need, very well equipped. Further out of town than we would have liked but a lovely walk to the wishbone arch then down the steps for walk into town. We taxied back! £6. Found a dust trail behind the mirror in bedroom and plaster cracked above the radiator bit that is the only fault I could find, still worth the 5* rating. This was a good last minute find after the one we should have stayed in had some damage and therefore we had to fine somewhere else. On-site parking and NO pets, 2 bedrooms, 1 en-suite and a bathroom, the showers were quite spacious. We would consider this accommodation again.

Absolutely amazing apartment and can’t wait to return . A lovely walk down into town and we always got a taxi back up which cost us £6 which I thought was a good price . There was fresh milk there for our arrival with tea , coffee and biscuits which I thought was very thoughtful.
