With 3 charming bedrooms, plus a separate, self-contained bedroom with ensuite, accessed from the front yard, this traditional beach cottage sleeps up to 8 people and has recently been given a new lease of life to enhance its character features including new relaxed, stylish furnishings and modern kitchen and bathrooms.  Set in established gardens with louvered windows throughout and an open plan living space, no detail has been overlooked in creating the perfect holiday haven to enjoy with family and friends.
