Review:

Skylarks bungalow was one of the nicest places that we have stayed. Very much a home-from-home feeling. The bungalow was bright and spacious. Simply decorated in neutral colours. Set in a quiet housing area, it is quiet and peaceful, yet near enough to walk to beach and town.
The modern kitchen contains all that you would require - washing machine, microwave, dishwasher, fridge freezer, and good range of crockery and cutlery and most importantly a corkscrew!!!
The bedrooms both had a beautiful view onto the garden and beyond across the cornfields, where in the evenings we could watch a deer and the birds. The beds were most comfy too.
TV, video, DVD player and comfy sofas great for relaxing after the day’s events. Highly recommended accommodation.

 
Specifically Recommend: There were no fussy ornaments and dressings, also an enclosed back garden, which made it very child-friendly. A short distance from the bungalow you can walk to the cliff tops for a beautiful view off the sea and landscape.
Be Aware: -
Could Provide: The only problem we had was that we had forgotten to bring our highchair, so meal times proved a little tricky. Perhaps if there was one available this would be useful, but as this was our mistake and we did not ask if there was a highchair available, then no, there was nothing else that we felt would have made our stay more comfortable.
