Lovely hosts and a fabulous room. I love it when the attention to detail in the room shows that the owners care. This was one of those times. A fantastic kitchenette and bathroom rounded it off superbly. Host were great at giving out tips and tricks of things to do and see. Juat across the road from the beach too. A shame to be leaving.

A really great stay- a warm welcome, a spacious room with everything we needed and breakfast delivered to our room the following morning.
