Location and house was great! 2 min walk to the beat was lovely in the evening. The house had everything we needed for a lovely stay!
The guests in the house next door we're extremely loud until the early hours of the morning!

The location was good and the property spacious.
This is the first one star review I have given any property I've stayed in, in all my years of travelling.
The hottub was unusuable and filthy, even found broken glass in it. We tried contacting the owner, and we couldn't get through. There is a hotel affiliated with this property around the corner, they wouldn't do anything, nor could get through to the person dealing with it.
Called Booking.com customer services, they spent two days trying to contact the owner, someone answered and refused to give Booking.com their name. They then outright refused any form of compensation. We booked this property primarily for the Hottub. Look at my photos.
The dishwasher was unuseable broken. The kitchen tap was ridiculously loose. We found broken glass in the garden as well as the hottub, dog poo in the garden!!!! Cobwebs everywhere, mould on the windows, the blinds aren't black out and there are flood lights about, which shine through the windows. Several of the couples had to hang a towel at the window to try and block out the light.
If you have anyone in your party with mobility issues, don't book this place. The stairs are really steep, I struggled to navigate them and my mobilty is fine. Our bedroom door didn't even shut, the latch didn't reach the door frame so a light breeze from someone opening their bedroom up opened our bedroom door. The heating didn't work, it was on constantly and the valves did not work. I had to have the window open and fan on in February, and it was still hot. Water pressure in our bathroom was low. The place looked very clinical in some areas. And if you want peace and quiet, don't both. The neighbours are all holiday rentals with parties going on until the early hours.
We left the property a day early because of how bad it was there. The owners attitude is inexcusable.
THE MOST SHOCKING THING IS THE LACK OF SUPPORT OR RESPONSIBILITY BY THE OWNER, ABSOLUTE CRIMINAL. TAKES YOUR MONEY AND RUN.

Lovely house very clean. Hot tub great. Lovely location near the beach. Nice to have a bathroom for each room.
The neighbours!!! Dont stay here if you are a family or dont like parties next door until 2am! The owner of the property also owns the one next door and the people there were partying from when we arrived at 3pm in the afternoon until 2am in the morning even though the details state no parties or noise after 10pm. I called the owner the following day and was told that they would be contacting the people staying there to ask them to be quiet. The owner had received various complaints throughout the day and night from residents as well as us and at one point we even had to call the police as they were quite aggressive when asked to keep the noise down. We thought maybe we would get a better nights sleep the next night as they had been 'asked' to keep the noise down but at 1am they were in the hot tub making noise again. No information on how to use equipment. Couldn’t just watch normal tv without having to have accounts for ITV X or BBC Iplayer. No normal Freeview. Had 3 instances of fuses going and all power going off.
Have since made a complaint to the owner through booking.com but what a surprise they have not responded!!
This was not a cheap weekend and definitely wasnt worth the money paid.
5.0
Everything! Fantastic location next to the beach, the accommodation was immaculate and extremely well equipped. Outstanding value for money. Would definitely stay again.
Not really the property owners fault but I wasn’t impressed with dog poo left in the garden by the previous guests.
3.5
The property is very near to the beach and has 6 bedrooms.
Pets are allowed although we did not have one.
All the bedrooms were as described and had a kitchen which was well equipped.
All utility items were there except a washing machine.
The keys to the property have to be collected from a different address.
The property is accessed through a side gate which was not mentioned in the booking and also the address is 68A and not 68.
There is no dedicated parking and I had difficulty in finding a parking space near by to offload our bags.
There was a hot tub as described, which we did not use as there was no privacy.
There was a problem with a faulty electrical appliance (hot tub?) and so the plug points in kitchen were not working frequently including the one connected to the fridge/freezer. When we called the maintenance, the person came quickly but said that he was not an electrician and simply advised us to use the RCD unit to switch the sockets back on.
2.0
The house was lovely, very spacious, very clean inside, well stocked with kitchen items, towels and toiletries.
The garden was nice and the table tennis was good.
Brilliant location minutes from the beach, a splash pad and park. And a couple of restaurants extra.
The hot tub was dirty and full of sand with hardly any water in it when we got there, so much foaming when turned on, after maintenance team came the next morning this was still the case and the water was then green so we were unable to use it again.
4.5

4.0
Spacious, location, clean, new, plenty of bathrooms, toiletries and towels provided, kitchenware, early checkin and late checkout (thank you!!), hot tub, table tennis
The stairs are narrow and steep so not good for people with mobility problems, downstairs fuse kept on tripping turning off the TV and hot tub, no instructions for the induction hob and oven
4.5
This is a stunning conversion where every little detail has been thought of to make your stay a real home away from home. We loved everything about it especially the location and the gorgeous kitchen/living area. The 24 hour access to help should you need it is also an added bonus. Also VERY dog friendly!
There’s nothing not to like-it’s perfect!
