Beach and Beyond.
Posted Apr. 30, 2024 on HomeAwayLoved the position, we enjoyed our meals on the balcony, listening to the surf, watching the board riders, generally enjoying the view. During the day we either walked the beach (be mindful of the tides, nearly caught one day!) or chose the well worn path over the hill, where, thanks to the locals we discovered the coffee stop en route to the next village! The coffee shop soon became our destination rather than our waypoint!!
The local store was a gem, there appeared to be nothing they could not supply-we often took their sandwiches out for lunch, it was an absolute gem, lovely staff as well!
Super holiday Trevor and. Margaret from Australia.

David we are so glad that you like our beach-side accommodation as we work hard constantly to make it as homely as possible. Regarding the washing machine, as most guest only stay for a week, It's usually not needed. I had worries from the start (15 yrs ago) about a washing machine leaking, as if it did it would trash the old pine floor which covers the whole of the downstairs. If a leak happened without warning we would have shut down the house for many weeks, to pull up the floor and re-lay it, causing serious havoc to all our guest who had booked. The electricity meter is not ideal and we do not like having it, but it seems the fairest way to keep our prices as low as possible, with constantly changing energy prices. We have found some people like to keep the house 'like a sauna' and some set it at 20c, so to make it fair you simply pay for the electricity you use. Typically, in the summer with no heating on it cost about £4-5 a week and this raises to about £3-4 a day in the mid-winter with a frosty outside.
I hope this helps with the "reasons why". We hope to see you again some time, Best regards, Bob & Gilly

Beautiful sea views.
Posted Nov. 9, 2022 on HomeAwayBeach was really wild and beautiful. Lovely coastal walks. Although the weather wasn’t brilliant we really enjoyed listening to the roar of the waves crashing on the rocks from the balcony. I would definitely recommend.
