With three teenagers, we wanted to be close to both town and beach and this house ticked that box. It also gave us lots of space and we loved the fact that the library provides a second sitting room. My husband and I are both super sensitive to noise and booked it in the knowledge that it would be noisy. It is testament to the house – its character, spaciousness and high ceilings, and its really fabulous access to the sea that all the positives far outweighed the negatives and we were really happy with our choice. There are steps down to the sea right across the road and this meant that everyone could come and go between beach/house/town completely independently. We were glad to be here with the beach one minute away than to be in town and have to 'commute' to the beach. Irati was a wonderful, helpful host.
