Just a walk away from the beach! and local restaurants and bars.
Perfect for our requirements. Thank you. Easy hireage. Great location. Loved the rule/info list (very brief) so felt relaxed and did our group very well.

Very private 1 bedroom modern flat bordering reserve in very quite cul-de-sac
Very homely, cosy but spacious. Good pressure shower and kitchen well equipped. Good to have parking spot too.

Energy Motor Lodge
Great location...BUT that's all that's good about this motel! Dirty overall! Mismatched+chipped crockery! Used bedsheets! Stained carpets! Unwashed floors! Battered furniture! Unmanned office! Definitely will NEVER stay again!
