Second year staying here, and as said before this house is perfect! Love the views, and has everything needed. New updated patio area and bar. My son loved the balance board â thank you for leaving it in. Recommend the Driftwood Spars in St. Agnes for food. Book the top bar (sea view). Gutted already booked up for 2024 but hoping to be back another year.
