We had such a lovely time at the beach house. Even though it was Christmas the house was always lovely and warm and we really only used the fire for fun. The water was hot and the beds comfortable and I had pretty much everything I needed to cook a Christmas lunch. We did do a few little outings but really, the view from the house is so lovely we didn't feel we needed to go anywhere. Thanks so much for the great stay and we hope to be back soon!
