“cosy,comfortable and clean”

Reviewed 13 Sep 2020

A lovely apartment in a fantastic location. Mel and Bob were very welcoming and helpful. The welcome pack of groceries is very generous. The bed and furniture are really comfy after a day out on the island. From booking to arrival, Mel made sure everything went smoothly. Thank you for letting us stay. The morning views from the doorstep are worth getting up for. Watching the ships on the horizon throughout the day was very memorable.

“What a lovely week!”

Reviewed 19 Aug 2020

I stayed in Mel's lovely apartment with my husband and 2 kids. We all felt it was one of the best places we have stayed. The location is amazing, right by the beach. We enjoyed not having the stress of having to find parking by the beach and then lug all our stuff for a day on the beach, we were able to just pop over whenever we fancied it throughout the week at anytime. In the evening we sat and listened to the waves lapping at the shore, beautifully relaxing. The apartment itself was beautifully presented, a home from home and Mel, the owner, had thought of everything as far as what you would need including a generous amount of provisions which meant we had enough to not have to go food shopping till the day after we arrived. She even put novelty pillow cases out for our kids. This was also one of the cleanest places we have stay too. Would highly recommend this place anytime, we are going back to do it all again next year, can't wait.
