Family Holiday - location A

The accommodation was perfect for what we needed. Everything was supplied enabling us to have an easy, fun - accessible to the beach and playground holiday. Our family loved it. The place had great spaces for everyone to sleep soundly and time out.

Family getaway

Wonderful house with character! More than enough room for the extended family, my parents loved the separate self contained area downstairs as a reprieve from their two grandchildren. House is warm, clean and quiet with plenty of seating & the kitchen is well equipped. Only a 2min walk to the beach. We'd happily stay here again, thank you.

That 70s feel

It is true to the era and we enjoyed finding lots of little nic nacs that reminded us of our childhoods. Great to have the space to all stay and be able to sit at night together comfortably. Great cooking facilities too

Great location

House is in an ideal location, 2 minutes walk from the beach. Great for teenagers although the Wifi didn’t quite reach the downstairs bedrooms. The house is indeed a celebration of the 70’s so the decor and fittings are aged but outweighed by the location and view. Property management team very helpful and responsive. We’ll stay here again.

Just the ticket

We love the 70s vibe of this house. Its proximity to the beach was perfect for a morning swim, close to town and Brooklands. Great for a larger group
