North West Sea View No. 3 is praised for its superb location right on the beach, offering stunning views and a tranquil setting ideal for relaxation. Guests appreciate the friendly host and the proximity to local amenities, including a cafe. The property is described as cosy and well-equipped, with some guests rebooking for future stays.
The property generally appears to be clean, but some guests noted areas where dust and mould were present, suggesting room for improvement in thoroughness. However, these comments are relatively few compared to the overall number of reviews.
The location is consistently lauded for its breathtaking sea views and proximity to the beach, making it a highlight for many guests. The peaceful setting and nearby walks add to the appeal.
While the property is found to be warm and comfortable by some, others have raised concerns about inadequate heating and the quality of bedding, indicating that comfort levels may vary depending on the time of year and personal preferences.
Facilities are deemed adequate by most, but several reviews point out issues with maintenance, such as the need for better shower pressure, updating of kitchen appliances, and the inconvenience of the coin-operated electricity meter.
There is insufficient information regarding the presence of gifts or additional thoughtful touches provided by the host, so a score cannot be accurately given for this category.

I never mastered the shower which was hot or hot, but the accommodation was very comfortable and the view of the sea at night or early morning ( we were up at 5.00am) was fantastic. Thank you for a great holiday.

We feel that this is a basic requirement. We have already booked for next year.
