Where better to call home for your holiday than in this perfectly placed bolthole for eight!

Set over three floors, this charming, terraced property dates back to 1883 and has a wealth of original features interspersed with modern-day luxuries.

The upper promenade is ideal for a peaceful stroll at any time of the year and provides quick access to the beach and of course, the lighthouse in the town is a good landmark.
