The owner greeted us on arrival, friendly and welcoming. Nice place on a quiet street near a main road and amenities. It was very hot during our stay and although we slept with our windows open we could not hear the traffic. Our host volunteered a fan, which somewhat alleviated the heat, but staying in the top room under the roof, the room was very hot at night. I loved the décor - particularly the cubist paintings (?). The room was clean as was the house throughout. There was noise from a pump or something similar, coming from the room next to ours, but that seemed to be thoughtfully switched off at night (without needing to be requested). Very minor, it seemed near on impossible to get the shower head to retain its upright position. As for eco-friendly, I really don't know, as that wasn't something I was looking for and that is why I've only scored in middling. It's definitely value for money and a place I wouldn't hesitate to stay at again, nor hesitate to recommend it. The real downside was the nearest cafe for breakfast didn't open until 9 am. For early risers this could be a negative. Early risers wishing to do a good run, do have the beach amenities within reach of a good run and the lanes around the house are leafy green.
There are a selection of good places to eat nearby. May I recommend a short walk nearby on South Road, particularly before and BEYOND the railway station.
