Gillian and Rob were great hosts - though never met them! Prompt and warm in their communications - even our dog was made welcome. The house exceeded our expectations. It's "Haute Shack" - Lovely relaxed decor, lots of light, gorgeous secure garden wrapping the whole house in a private green oasis - birds everywhere, and a sprawling deck for outdoor meals. We like to cook for ourselves on our beach hols (we're funny like that) so the fabulously equipped kitchen was a bonus - every implement and gadget we needed was there, and a nice stock of gourmet ingredients if we forgot any. Furnishings, beds & bedding very comfy. Lots of thoughtful touches, games, sweet smelling stuff in the bathroom, cosy blankets (almost wished it would get cold!). We would love to go back, if they will take us.
