  • "A lovely little studio just across the road from the sea."

    It had everything you need. Very peaceful and relaxing.

  • "Lovely studio, clean, modern and good facilities."

    The only real let down for me, was the extremely low bedroom roof. We kept banging our heads on the low ceiling points. At 5ft 7, I had to crawl into bed to avoid banging my head, but would inevitably forget at times. The internet was slow at times, due to being on a WiFi extender I think. But no real issue for us as we were out most of the time. Otherwise the location is great, a stones throw away from the beach. Local supermarket a short drive away and access to a range lovely walks via the car otherwise. Edward was really helpful with regards to getting the heating working too, just took a few of hours to warm up. Thank you.

  • "The studio was great, an iron and board would have been a great addition."

  • "This is a lovely property."

    Contemporary design, quality fixtures and fittings and all the kitchen equipment and utensils that you need. A good sized, well ventilated shower room, again with quality fittings. Being of a certain age and a little overweight i struggled a little with the spiral staircase to the bedroom mezzanine and the WiFi kept kicking out the channels on the smart TV. That said, all in all, we enjoyed our stay. Thank you

  • "The apartment is very clean and cosy, the only negative is the WiFi didn't work, but apart from that a perfect place to stay."

  • "Lovely little apartment, extremely clean and all pretty much new!"

    Shower was high end thats exactly what you need after a long day walking! If your over 6ft tall best watch your head as there plenty of things to whack your head on! But we enjoyed every moment and would happily come back again.
