Lovely views! Short distance to the cliff paths! Great for early morning walks and late evening strolls. House invites the outside in.....lovely to relax in such a way. It had a couple of small issues due to the fact that it is spanking new! The host sorted it out in a wink! Well equipped kitchen. Good lay-out. Perfect for our stay! Thank you very much. Gerrie

The house was recently revamped. The furniture, fittings and decor are modern and tasteful. The house is comfortable and has all the conveniences to be home from home. The view from the second floor is soothing to the soul. The sliding windows and doors open the house to the outside and contributes to the holiday feeling. The hosts are efficient, professional and very friendly.
