Fabulous location for a peaceful break….30 metres from the beach. The apartment was spotlessly clean and so well appointed. The managers had thought of everything. Only problem is that a car is needed to access shops. Thank you for a very pleasant stay.

The property is currently very very hard to access because of road work on the M1. The beach is nice but not swimmable. Getting to other areas means quite a drive back and forth. Again the road work makes this a bit of a chore. The room itself was clean and well supplied. The web site said room service, but in effect this was once every 8 nights I believe, so a bit misleading.

Room was large and spacious with the kitchen inclusions being the best I've stayed in. Room was clean and much larger than anticipated, they have really put thought into what to include. Right down to the clothes airer, perfect for hanging towels and swimmers after a swim at the beach or pool.
