Sea’s the Day !

Limited time *SPECIAL DEAL* For a limited time we are offering our Holiday Home for couples to enjoy at a heavily discounted price ! It’s usually offered for up to 4 ppl at a much higher tariff but in the light of recent events, we thought couples may like to take advantage of having a more private getaway ! We do ask that you do not use the other bedroom & bathroom as we are endeavoring to minimize cleaning costs etc... Any guest that doesn’t abide by this will be charged a full cleaning fee.
