Brake away

Lovely peaceful stay, yes you can hear road noise but it didn't bother us. The house is just lovely. Loved how close it was to town, and beach so nice not to have to drive anywhere. Would definitely stay stay here again.

unbeatable location and ambience

this house is an easy stroll to the town center and beach. it is a gorgeous dwelling that is tastefully decorated and aesthetically pleasing. property manager was very helpful and came by the place within minutes to help troubleshoot how to get the stove on. hope we get a chance to return in the future.

Lovely cottage but on noisy main road

The cottage is beautifully appointed and spacious. The outdoor area is pleasant & secure, but lacks grass/lawn & outdoor furniture. The location is very convenient for town & the beach, but it is very noisy being on the main road - trucks thunder past all through the night, making for disturbed sleep.
