We had the most lovely holiday here for my husbands 50th birthday. The swimming at the beach is perfect and very safe and the sand is lovely to walk on, compared to nearby places where it is rocky and not suitable for barefeet. The bed was comfortable and we loved the ceiling fan, so good on a hot night. Everything was as described and it was really hard to leave (even the dog was whining when we packed up to go home!) We hope to visit again if you will have us!

Fantastic spot and a really neat batch. Cushla was an awesome host and answered all our questions, was super friendly and even let us check out late. We will definitely be back.
