"Really lovely family run B&B."
Gone is the stuffy, crumbly old B&B, and enter the eclectic, stylish, family run version. You really do feel you are sharing this lovely house with the young owners and their two young children. And with Alum chines staring just metres away, your amble down to the sandy beach will be just as enjoyable as your stay. Great place. Read less
