quiet atmospherespacious gardenattentive hosts
I visited when it was really calm and quiet, so i had a restful one night visit. i could see this is a good place for families needing space. Children can play board games or in the garden park, with a sea view. the hosts went to great lengths to look after us, supporting gluten free breakfasts and homemade gluten free granola.
the wi-fi signal wasn't always strong, a minor inconvenience!
