Lovely property located right on the beach. House has the wow factor as soon as you step in ... from the stain glass windows. The kitchen is massive fully equipped. The bedrooms are all spacious most have unsuited. Down stairs the basement has a games room and toys for the kids. More are hidden away under the benches. Garden excellent for kidRead mores all enclosed and overlooks the beach. Wifi is not very strong kept dropping and we had no phone signal in house. We booked the hot tub .... was lovely. Hide

This was the second year we have visited Beach House as last year we enjoyed our stay so much. The house and location is just perfect for a family holiday, in particular the large open plan dining/kitchen area, the games room, the garden and being able to walk onto the beach from the garden. Absolutely ideal for children and dogs. The views are Read morestunning. There are a few "niggles" that need attention but this certainly didn't detract from a fabulous holiday.

Beach House is a fabulous place to rent for a large party for a big birthday. We were 3 generations and had the most wonderful week in February. The house was really warm and comfortable and we all loved the hot tub which was a great extra. The children loved the garden and direct access to the beach was amazing.

The standard of cleaning wasnt great - cobwebs and dust in many places. Lots of furniture is a bit bashed and tired looking. It would be nice for whole sets of crockery and glasses - it felt like they had been gathered from numerous boot fairs rather than being complete sets. Plastic chopping boards etc all looked really old and a bit unhygienic Read moreto be honest. But the view, the location and comfort couldnt be faulted and we had a lovely time. Hide
