What a cosy getaway!
This cosy little bach was very clean and tidy, and absolutely ideal for anyone traveling with their fury companion. The property is entirely fenced off and has a small yard separate from the driveway for your dog to explore. My dog and I had a great time. Thank you very much for the lovely stay!

Cozy place by the beach
I was surprise by this place and its location. Pictures won’t do justice how cozy and clean this place is. Beach is also only a few minutes walking from the house and you can see ocean from bedrooms. Love it, thank you’

Very relaxing stay
The accommodation is exactly as described, we had a very relaxing time away. The kitchen has everything you could need and the bed was very comfortable for a good nights sleep. The location is also close to the waterfront, lots of walking opportunities. Would definitely recommend and we look forward to our next visit.
