Great property ion a fantastic location. Nice quiet area especially at night, but within walking distance of pubs, the high street and local supermarkets. Right near the train station too, although we didn’t use it. We travelled all over the place from this property and feel it was a great location to stay. This property is very well equipped and has set the bar for future bookings. Great view (photos are from the view from the front door and the harbour which is right outside the property. We were really happy with the booking and would highly recommend it.

A great location to explore the area. Yards away from the harbour which was beautiful. Perhaps 2 or 3 minutes walk to the steam railway. The property was ideal for us. Frustratingly one of the the shower heads kept falling off but we assume this was an oversight . It was a bit of a pain but no real complaint. Overall we really enjoyed our 4 nights here.

Great property but noisy

Property was very good but badly spoilt by poor sound insulation as could hear every voice and footfall in the apartment above.
