We had a wonderful week at Seal Rocks with our toddler and dog. Despite it being January, we enjoyed manly fine weather and loved watching the sunrises and spotting the seals and seabirds right outside. When it was windy and rainy we felt very smug to be so warm and cosy in the house. It was lovely and warm, there was a very generous supply of fire wood and the beds and sofas were super comfortable. We cooked meals each evening and had everything we needed in the kitchen. We also greatly appreciated the kind offer of a high chair and cot for our little boy. Everything in the house was high quality and all the decor and fittings were very modern and clean. The beds were fantastic and we all slept wonderfully. We’d love to return.

We had a wonderful stay at Seal Rocks, the house was lovely and had everything we could need and more. The beach was fab to take our dog for a run every morning with beautiful views of the sea and hills. Val was very welcoming and a great host, the gift hamper and Christmas decorations were a lovely gesture for us and my twin girls. Would definitely recommend to couples of family's for a nice relaxing break away from it all. Would definitely stay again 😊.
