  • "The property is amazing and we had a brilliant time."

    Beds were super comfortable and the shared spaces for eating and relaxing were lovely. The weekend was perfect and just what we needed. Parking was a challenge but plenty of parking on surrounding roads when we arrived, and then could move the car to long stay in the morning. Really central location and just a quick walk to the beach. Thank you.

    We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Home from Home! We look forward to hosting you again in the future. Have a wonderful Christmas! Regards, Paul & Jamie Property Owner
