I so enjoyed having the beach so close, I could take a 10-15 minute walk and get there. Or drive my car to a public parking area and take a long breathtaking walk on one of the most beautiful and fun beaches I know of. Then there was leaving or coming back to the cottage which was for me an oasis of comfort and beauty. The cottage felt very private and safe, I so enjoyed that aspect. Sue seems to take hospitality very seriously, she made life easier for me.
