Great location

We had a 3 night stay in this lovely chalet which is in a great location. Just 5-10 minute walk to the beach where there is a pub serving food. The Sunday carvery is fantastic. The chalet has everything you need and communication with the owner is very good and informative. I will definitely stay again.

Great place to stay

The property was easily found, the key was easily produced, we entered and it was extremely clean, the owner left everything we needed including the pint of milk in the fridge. We were very pleased at the outcome as we'd never been here before, the surrounding areas clubhouse facilities were excellent even though it was out season, we are grateful to the owner of this property and hopefully we left it as we found it. 10/10

Lovely stay as always

Great stay at the chalet again but I do have to mention that the double bed is extremely uncomfortable and I spent the week with back pain due to this, a new mattress and a bigger / more comfortable sofa will do this chalet absolute wonders! None the less we will hopefully be back or use another one of the owners properties as our friend stayed in one on the same site :) very convenient location and lovely outdoor space.
