Rachel
We had an amazing time at Albatross 12. There were 9 of us staying and 1 dog. The location was perfect; close to the beach, shops and pubs. The views from the house were gorgeous. There was everything we needed, and things we didnt know we needed, in the house, and the owners had thoughtfully left ingredients for a cream tea for our arrival. Lots Read moreof room for us all to spread out and chill out, lots of board games that we played on the one rainy day we had. The kitchen was very well equipped and we managed to cook a roast dinner for 9 one day, as well as a bbq another day. We had the best holiday and would love to go back one day. Highly recommend it.

Had 5 grandkids for part of the stay and they had a fRead moreantastic time. Hide
