Our family of five (and our dog) loved our stay in this gorgeous, comfortable seaside house. We went for long walks, played board games, cuddled up on the couches for movies, and read tons of books. The fireplace churned out a lot of heat and made the house feel cozy. We cooked all our own meals and I would say that if you like to do the same thing, you should bring your own knives. The house could use a couple more serving bowls/platters. But otherwise the kitchen is reasonably well appointed for a vacation rental. Loved that there was a basket of clean beach towels near the front door, which we used even in January because our fearless children insisted in running in the waves (in long pants) and getting a little wet and sandy. It helped to dry them all off outside so we would track only minimal sand into the house. We would absolutely stay here again.
