We came in October when the weather is a bit less predictable. Even on the colder days it was nice to go to the beach and explore. We also came with our three year old. It was pretty safe for him to play in the house and the garden by himself. There is a driveway but it’s not used much and when he wasn’t playing there, we didn’t need to worry about him and he had a great time exploring and playing in all the rooms. The kitchen is good for cooking and the bbq is great. The beds were comfy and the linen seemed good quality. Everything was nice and clean. It’s got a lovely Bach-y feel and it’s pretty quirky. It would be ideal for big groups, it was just the three of us most of the time, and viv and Tim were really flexible that we had extra guests come for one night.
