Difficult access to town due to steep single track road but brilliant views over town and down the coast .

This is a fabulous property, so close to the town yet feels like the middle of nowhere. Simone and Alan were very welcoming and happy to share their beautiful place, for which we are very grateful. The views do take your breath away but Seascape itself is a gem. It is modern yet cosy with well chosen art on the walls and little touches that make it homely. The kitchen had everything we needed plus more than. The lounge area is very comfy - although the TV could be a bit bigger :-) - the picture window with the view of the sea was the best channel. There are games and books to choose if the weather isn't great. The master bedroom is fab, the beds very comfy, I loved the duvets. We took our Chihuahuas who loved it too, very dog friendly, easy to walk them and felt safe.We would definitely recommend Seascape and a big thank you to our hosts Alan and Simone.
