The decor is predominantly white, light and seasidey, with wooden floors and white walls adorned with original artwork. The living area is a combination of contemporary and cosy cottage traditional, with two sofas, two armchairs and a wooden kitchen table and chairs. The bedroom looks out onto the deck and has a double pine bed, a striking floor-to-ceiling mirror and a hand-decorated wardrobe.

You will find everything you need here for a classic beach holiday. The kitchen has the usual dishwasher, large fridge freezer and washing machine, and there's a tumble dryer tucked into the garden shed. Bed linen and kitchen linen are provided, but please bring your own bathroom and beach towels. Entertainment includes a Bose CD player, a DVD/video player and plenty of board games and books, as well as local maps and guidebooks.

The local shop sells regular groceries, deli produce, home made ready meals, locally made breads and cakes, hot croissants and newspapers. There's private parking at the back of the house, obscured by a shed and a pair of apple trees. Most mobile phone networks can be used at the house.

Sorry, no pets or smoking.
