Best beach holiday on south coast

Fabulous stay. So quiet and relaxing. Beautiful countryside for working. Beach clean, sea amazingly clear and great for swimming. Turnstiles is lovely and a relaxing space to be in. Everything you could need and a gorgeous veranda to sit and watch the seas.

This property is amazing, its full of character and very very cosy. The location is ideal, right in the beach, walking distance to fish and chips, short drive to Asda.

Lovely, unusual place

Don't know whether to call it a cottage, cabin or carriage - because it's actually two carriages and a bit more. Anyway, it's great.

Short relaxing stay by beach

Myself, 4 kids ages 9-23, 2 dogs! A fantastic few days away! The house is well equipped, clean and cozy! A very homely feel, love the layout and my 8 yr daughter loved the quirky little bunk bed in the small kids room!! That was a bonus :) plenty to do nearby, but loved just stepping out onto the beach, and sitting on balcony watching/listening to the sea 💕 we would def be back here next time we need a few days away! Thank you soo much xx
