Our family of four stayed for 5 nights in the Dolphin Studio. The room had everything we needed, comfortable beds, spacious, kitchen, sofa, dining table, and a gorgeous sea view! We really liked the option of having breakfast at the B&B which was delicious, particularly fresh fruits, and the choice of the warm breakfast.

Stayed for two nights. Stayed for one night last year so obviously enjoyed it and returned. Accommodation first class and a very good breakfast. The area is one of outstanding beauty and the cabins have a wonderful view.
