Fantantic little find
Nothing was too much trouble, we absolutely loved it. Perfect for 4 dsys of R n R.
The food was delicious, and they cooked us a traditional curry which was served on the beach to us. Quiet end of Dikewella beach which we loved.
Location was great as we could walk easily into town along the beach.
Thank you all.
