    It was very comfortable and cozy with great proximity to the beaches and parks. The house looked out in a nature reserve adding to the peaceful atmosphere.

    Everything we needed was on site which was great as we love to cook- even on holiday! Beds were super comfy. We enjoyed Netflix when it was raining.
