Affordable Beach Escape
Great sized property which made week long stay super easy. Lots of vintage charm from tiles in kitchens and bathrooms. Lots of character. Be aware that the stumps at one end of the house are not cross braced. If you have heavy people in your holiday party the house will sway and bounce!!

It was older style accom. But the location in a quiet area and the coffee shop just down the road did the trick. Thanks

Well stocked with some unwanted company
Property is well stocked with everything you need and our stay would've been perfect if there was no moth infestation, the whole house smelt of moth balls. We disposed of over 50 moths on arrival, we found the experience amusing and had lots of laughs chasing the moths out. However, by the time we went to bed we had a pile of an additional 50 dead moths building up and 1 or 2 would pop up every 15 mins or so. Also the double bed mattress needs attention, we only stayed 2 nights so it was bearable but not comfortable.

Great location, lovely host.
For the price, it was nice. Old, drafty and not sound proofed at all. When the kids woke up, their voices reverberated all through the house making it impossible to sleep in. Even the Kettle sound was so loud that it didn’t feel like any of the doors in between were closed. The toilet was extremely loud and the main bathroom shower water goes everywhere because there is no shower curtain or screen. It’s a shame that in this day and age there is no internet and having to bring my own Manchester and linen was disappointing because it now means I have a huge pile of washing when I get home.

What makes this property unique

I grew up in the country, and would come to this house with my family every school holidays for a beach break. It was one of the first houses built in the area, I have photos of surrounding blocks in the background which were empty.
