“Great family rental for Christmas!”
Very warm cosy family house with plenty of space. Huge kitchen- just what we needed at Christmas. Wood/coal fire for cosy evenings. Pebble beach only a short walk from house. A highly recommended pub/restaurant just around the corner. Great selection of board games for the children - and adults! Only one slight drawback was the extremely uneven and muddy road outside (and a light beige carpet in the hallway!!) Would return, possibly in the spring/summer to visit more nearby attractions and walks.
