One of the best hidey houses we've stayed in
We loved this place. It had everything we needed. There was no skimping on bedding, two sheets on the beds and extra warm blankets. The kitchen had plenty of cooking utensils, glassware, crockery and cutlery. The home is modern and clean, with lots of toys, books, DVDs. Our dog loved the little backyard and the offlead beach was a nice 35min walk.

A thoroughly enjoyable stay in this comfortable, quiet and well-appointed property. Our little one enjoyed the games and toys especially. The hosts were especially amenable and quickly addressed any concerns (which were v.few) or queries. Recommended.
