Cozy holiday home, super well stocked kitchen cupboards with the essentials like glad wrap and olive oil and the much appreciated coffee pods! We ended up driving to beach which was fine - beach shelter, snacks, boogie board etc - we’re too hard to carry that far. Really enjoyed our stay and so appreciative that the pup was able to come along too and be safe in secure yard.Missed out on the local wood fired pizza from Side Hustle - order before lunch if you want to get one.
