Southbank Reviews

Sam
Wow, what a place! We honestly didn't want to leave. The location is superb, with amazing views that make every morning special. The house has everything you could possibly need, plus some nice extras. Plenty of space for the whole familyand it feels really luxurious without being over the top. We even unpacked fully because it was so clean and comfy. Definitely a stay we'll remember and come back to!
Jamie
We had such a lovely stay! The house was spotless and fully stocked with everything we needed. The owners greeted us personally and gave a quick tour, which was really helpful. The location is fantastic - stunning views and just a short walk to the beach. The info pack was handy for finding local spots and activities. We'd definitely come back and recommend it to others. Really enjoyed our time here!
Emma Carter
Beautiful place, stunning sunset views, definitely worth recommending.

This place really exceeded our expectations. The house is stunning and incredibly well stocked, which is rare. It's spotless throughout and in a fantastic spot. Even with some lousy weather, we still had a lovely time just relaxing. Communication was smooth from start to finish. We'd definitely return and bring friends along. Thanks so much for your warm hospitality!
