    Great location and retro vibe. “Rustic by the Sea” could not be a more appropriate name. My dog and I loved the beach runs & swims with the perfect fireplace to return to each day. Well laid out for a hassle free stay.

    Lovely location, very clean, the directions were clear and it was a quiet, lovely hideaway, right next to the beach.
