The Crows Nest has everything you need, its very light and airy, plus a magical view of the sunrise over the sea, from the smaller bedroom. Also a south facing small balcony. Its a perfect little flat in a perfect little seaside town. Thanks for lending it??.

Great location and lovely sea view from bedroom. Good visit overall. Outdoor furniture looking tired and air vent caked in dust.

We did not realise the property was on the 2nd floor and theres no lift! We managed but not everyone would. The property was perfectly located for exploring the area.
