We had a wonderful stay at 35 chancer rise.. House immaculate. Lovely garden , tvs , everything you could ask for. Nearest newsagents a 15 minute walk. But pub and restaurants not in walking distance. Parking on site also which was definitely a plus

Lovely house in a brilliant location.Walking distance to a local pub, playground and shop.There was 4 adults and 2 children in our group and ther was plenty of space and ample parking, was a nice surprise to find cleaning essentials already in the cupboards.10 mins drive away from the beach. We had a fabulous time and we look forward to staying again in future.
