"The most incredible location. Those views! I loved how the inn was so characterful and charming but totally luxurious at the same time."
"We stayed in one of the beach huts, which are stunningly located, hovering as they do immediately above the waves."
"The balcony had two loungers and the views were just spectacular overlooking the bay."
