Shining Star Beachfront Accommodation
The lady at reception, Kym? Gave us a great welcome and we particularly appreciated that when she noticed my wife's walking disabilities, changed the booking so that we had a chalet with a ramp for easy access. In spite of the wet and windy weather, we were snug in a very nicely appointed room.
