We stayed here for 6 nights in July. Property is very clean with spacious living room with a great view overlooking the sea front and park; high ceilings give it a very airy feel.Kitchen is well set up except oddly, no microwave, there is a laundry machine in the bathroom. Great location and is perfect for a family or a couple on vacation. Lots of eating places within 10 minutes walk.Host was very prompt with communication.Highly recommend.

Very convenient for our purpose of visiting family. Property was clean and well equipped except for a microwave oven which would have made heating snacks or quick meals less of a hassle than having to use a full conventional oven.Having said this the situation is certainly excellent with great views from the lounge windows and I would thoroughly recommend this Accomodation to anyone looking for a quiet yet very conveniently placed to stay especially as it has its own off road parking space.Thank you to our very helpful hosts.
