Older style comfy cottage in good location
The owner was extremely helpful offering extra time for us to check out and the home even though not five star had a comfortable feel and a nice clean smell. The bed was comfortable and we had everything we needed for our stay. The yard was secure for our little dog. We'd stay again.

Our grandchildren just loved the sleepout with the Foosball and being able to have a little secret place. The shack was exactly what you want for a beachside escape feeling atmospheric and fun! Lyn was very responsive to any queries we had.
