The apartment is in a good location to access the harbour and places to eat. I was concerned about using public car parks, but this worked out very well and the fact that there are no charges overnight significantly reduced cost associated with parking. We loved the amazing sea views and all the equipment provided.

If youre looking for a great view and location you cant get much better. Very close to the harbour and pubs/shops/restaurants etc. Good sized apartment with everything you need. It is an older building so it definitely needs some paint/plaster/tlc here and there. Overall a good stay.

This is a spacious, light and beautifully furnished apartment with breath-taking views of the sea from the floor to ceiling windows of the living room and dining area of the kitchen. It is good to have a bathroom with bath and separate shower.

A unique property with a stunning sea view. The interior design is also incredibly welcoming and fitting for a sea side property. All the necessary amenities are available at the property and the location is right by the harbour, close to restaurants and cafes. We really enjoyed our stay!

The best thing about this apartment is the view and size. We agree with a previous reviewer, the apartment needs some serious attention. Great size of apartment but plaster needing to be fixed in lots of places, needs a lick of paint, the rugs everywhere are very nice but they need to be secured. They are a hazard, as I found out. On arrival when uRead morenpacking in the kitchen, I slipped and fell, just a few bruises. Parking is very confusing, car parks have no CCTV and are in secluded areas. Hide

Brilliant, felt like being invited to a best friends house with all the comfort and lovely touches of a well loved home. And that view!!

Lovely, comfortable and well-equipped apartment, and you really have to see the views from the kitchen and living room for yourself to believe them. Parking isn't provided but there are lots of car parks within 5-10mins walk of the apartment so we didn't find that to be an issue.

15 out of 10 ! Fabulous ! The Apartment is big and spacious . The windows in the kitchen and Living room are enormous . The view is just awesome ! Parking wasn't an issue in the car parks . From October to March the car parking prices are cheaper . We bought a weekly pass ( 20 ) but it was not worth it as the daily ticket is only 1.70 at the momeRead morent ( 2023) . You can use the pass in other towns to park but not on all car parks. We did not experience any noise from neighbours . Hide

A wow moment as soon as you enter the cottage and take in the sea view. Spent hours just sat there reading and looking out. Very spacious with a well equipped kitchen and plenty of books and CDs. Location was excellent, close to the Harbour and restaurants.

Areas of the cottage needed a bit of attention but it was compensated by the sea views. Hide
