It matched the the photos in the listing and we felt it was great value for money. The location is perfect, right next to the docks, and was not difficult to get to by car. As mentioned in the listing, the property is adjoined to the kitchen of one of the dock side restaurants so there is some associated noise, mainly during the day. It did not bother us and would not deter us from staying there again. There is a public parking bay right outside the property. But there is no guarantee that it will be free, and also bear in mind that the street is quite narrow and there are delivery vans daily. That said, we were able to park our SUV without issue, and the Pavilion Car park is less than 5 mins walk away and always has lots of space. The main beach and shops are less than a 5 min walk. We ate breakfast every morning at the Custom House Café, which is just around the corner and does an amazing full English. Another previous guest mentioned about the quality of the beds. I'm happy to report that the double bed in the master bedroom is now amazingly comfortable - much better than our bed at home! Our 10 and 12yr old daughters also didn't have any complaints about the twin beds in their room. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the property, and would not hesitate to stay there again.

Le foto della stanza da letto matrimoniale non sono aggiornate, ora c'è un letto molto comodo e poi grande. La casa è confortevole e completa di tutto il necessario e la posizione è ottima, a due passi dalle principali attrazioni. Lo consiglio :)

Really easy to access everything. The property is well equipped with a selection of things to use. Unfortunately though this is the worst place we have every slept. The beds were horrendous. The metal frames creaked very loudly if you made the slightest move. We had our 2 children sharing the twin room so if one made the tiniest movement it woke them both up. The mattresses were thin so you could feel the bed slats/ metal. We had spent the weekend before camping, and that was far more comfortable! It feels like the rooms have been decorated in quite fresh white paint to make it look nice and then cheap beds put in which is a shame. There are NO wardrobes. Just some hooks. The one small cupboard in the main bedroom was full of bags and a hoover. We were not aware this property is connected to a restaurant and their extractor fan is loud till late, loud staff coming and going, bottles bin being emptied early hours, washing their kitchen equipment in the street. We would not have booked had we had known this. We were prepared for some street noise being central but not this. We were aware before booking that there was no parking with this property but the local parking was horrendous, and it took us a long time on arrival to get a space. As it was August it was particularly busy but 1.5hrs trying to park a distance away was not good. We decided not to move the car all holiday. Would not recommend this place for a family.
