"Time seems to stand still! Quiet place to take a rest and look at the birds on the foreshore, the sea, and the tides. Thank you, Robyn, for your welcome. We will have a thought for you while reading your book."

"Wow! What a place to stay. Overlooking the sea on your doorstep with table and chairs to stare at the view. Such lovely accommodation with great pictures on the walls and everything you would need for a stay. Very clean and comfortable with an exceptional host who wants to make the stay special. I so wish we had booked for longer. A relaxing, special place. Would highly recommend."
