    Group of mature ( mostly!) friends. Room for everyone and never get tired of gazing out at the views. Couldn't get much closer to it too! A bigger bbq would be a bonus for so many but we managed

    We were a group of 8 adults and two children under 3, 4 night stay for my 60th birthday celebration. Property was large enough to accommodate all of us in extreme comfort and privacy. I had my family downstairs (4 adults and the children) and friends upstairs and with the 3 bathrooms we all had privacy and solitude when needed. Beds were really comfy and the great secluded parking at the rear of the property easily accommodated 5 vehicles. Sea views from all bedrooms and the main living area which was so nice. Well stocked kitchen (crockery/cutlery) and many items that had been left in the communal pantry which was nice...we left some coffee pods behind as our contribution! Quiet location and safe as at the end of a cul-de-sac. BBQ is small so for our large group we used the stove top and oven as well to cook enough food in one go. Owner (Dina) was really easy to communicate with and very friendly. Easy walk to the beach. Loved our stay.
