lovely home, only reason it didn't get a 5 was its not very private, the outside is very exposed to anyone coming down the shared driveway and the house opposite can see into all the rooms on the driveway side. would help if the lawned aera was hedged along that side.

Best summer
Our family had a wonderful stay at Sandy Feet Retreat this summer! The location was unbeatable – just steps away from the beach. The house was clean, spacious, and well-equipped, with thoughtful touches like beach towels and other essentials provided.
