Lovely holiday home in close proximity to the beach.
Lovely cottage in great village location. We enjoyed the close proximity to the beautiful dunes and beach. We have just one remark: the extractor hood is not connected, so the kitchen has a greasy patch on the ceiling and was a bit sticky/greasy overall. Otherwise the cottage was very clean and wellkept.
