It was such a lovely property, with all the things you'd need in your home from home. Great location with only a short wall to the shops and beach. Lots of restaurants to choose from if you fancied a meal out. John's communication was great and when we found we had no black bags in the house, he had some dropped off.

You cant improve on perfect, this was perfect, even with the extra stress that comes with a 5 month old puppy!

If you want a lovely house to stay in which would cater for all your needs and dog friendly this is it. Lovely huge long beach when tide out to walk and enjoy the views, plus a huge green space off the estate to explore. The hot tub is great after long walks so its a must do task, its a flat 15 min walk to the town where you can stop off at dog fri endly eateries either for lunch or just a refreshing drink. We enjoyed our 4 night stay and thoroughly recommend Salty Tides.
