A really beautifully created, cosy and comfortable home from home, by the wild and wonderful ocean and beach. Loved the images and objects and sculptures from around the world, with love of surfing sea and planet to be witnessed in every room. Thankyou

Lovely bungalow, very comfortable and excellent location. We found a remote control for the garage door in the kitchen after we had struggled on arrival, as the control is ceiling height and I am only 5 foot 2 inches tall. Hopefully they will update the information so others can access this on arrival. Also, if you like a mug of tea / coffee / hoRead moret chocolate - take your own - only small tea cups and tiny, ristretto sized coffee mugs provided. Highly recommend the Beach House and Bar to eat. https://www.beachhousewidemouth.co.uk/ - fabulous food, wonderful staff and views out to sea. We had lunch and dinner there. Hide
