Reviews
We have just returned from a week staying in this fantastic property. The views from every rear window across Start Bay towards the light house are unrivalled and, as we were lucky enough to have wonderful sunny weather each day, we found it difficult to pull ourselves away from the stunning vista and pool and go out for the day! The house was beautifully presented and exceptionally comfortable. The nearest beach, Blackpool Sands, is about a 15 minute walk from the house, and within the village is a good restaurant and a local pub. Thank you!
