Very pleasant owners and a lovely location. The Lambing hut is small but ideal for one or two persons and a dog! Unfortunately due to the very high temperatures I had to leave early due to it being too hot for the dog. The hut is South facing so was in the sun all day and being dark in colour it retained the heat until late evening. Not the owners Read morefault and normally a spell of hot weather would have been very welcome. Good location for visiting beaches and other locations. Hide
