Summary: The bach is very rustic but was adequate for our two night stay. What bothers me is the inaccuracy of the listing. The bach looks directly at a hedge and the back of the owners house. There is absolutely no view of the beach, neither is there a patio or deck.

Summary: The amenities were fine, the hosting was superb, and this piece of coastline, with its variety of bays, and to which I have been many times, remains one of the best holiday locations ever and dear to my heart.

Summary: The cottage had a special feeling and nostalgia. Kitchen was well equipped. Close proximity to owner in adjacent house was unexpected, and distance to beach was further than online photos had suggested, but we still had a good time.
