The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a sociable area where you can cook and eat a home-cooked meal together or simply snuggle up on the sofa watching your favourite shows. Enjoy a glass of wine at the dining table while admiring the far-reaching coastal views from the window. For some shuteye, head through to the super-king-size bedroom.

Very happy with the apartment and had a lovely break. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything you would need. The same can be said for the other rooms too. We spent many happy hours on the beach walking and body boarding. Then came back to the apartment and watched the surfers and waves roll on to the beach. We would have come back again nRead moreext year with grandchildren and their parents, but the apartments with 2 bathrooms had already been booked. Hide

A really nice place to stay. The cottage is in a gated area just off a beautiful beach. It was clean and comfortable and the Welcome Pack was a really nice touch. Thank you.
