Location, a short walk to town and it's excellent restaurants, bars and coffee shops. A little further on walking for the great beach and promenade. Try Fish a great restaurant, and only two minutes walk. Also for great coffee and naughty bakes and treats, try Mary and Joe's..big wow to both. We liked the guest lounge and the excellent well stocked serve yourself honesty bar..fantastic Great staff delivering a welcoming vibe
