This property is amazing. It couldn't be in a more relaxing location, with private beach access and located in a quiet street. It is decorated beautifully, the breakfast is delicious, and the staff are so accommodating. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking to relax, enjoy the peace and quiet, and wake up to a beautiful view of the sea.

Good for the soul
Tge staff was exceptional! They are welcoming, friendly and helpful. The breakfast is a variety of hot and cold options with freshly baked goods. The rooms were comfortable and warm. Our doggies enjoyed their stay. The main house has a beautiful lounge where one can have sundowners overlooking the beach.

Surprised by surprises
It was surprising as we didn’t expect stairs but we managed ok. We were not seaview because we were in a cottage and not the lodge. Also surprising. Nice and clean and serviced daily. Friendly staff They wanted a large breakage deposit. Also surprising

Sea views
Beautiful accomodation on the beach. It was very cold though and no blankets provided. Also except noise as people come and go from rooms overhead as the floorboards creak and sound travels. Could have used thicker towels the minimalism wasnt always practical.
