Westward Waves Reviews

James
This place is super spacious, with a beautiful garden and hot tub. Our dogs loved itand the view from the living room is simply stunning!
Mike
Really enjoyed our stay, comfy rooms, helpful staffand perfect location by the beach.
Emily
We had such a lovely stay here! The location was perfect, with stunning views from the balcony and a really peaceful vibe. The house itself was beautifully decorated and super comfortable, especially the beds. The kitchen had everything we needed, which was great. When we had a small problem with the hot water, Steven sorted it out quickly - really appreciated that. All in all, a fantastic place we'd definitely return to. Thanks so much!
Emma
We loved the layout with bedrooms downstairs and the living space up top, offering stunning views from the balcony of the sea and nearby nature reserve. The outside area with seating, BBQ, lawnand hot tub was perfect for relaxing. The fencing was great for keeping our small dog safe. The beach nearby is fantastic, just a short walk over the shingle bank. Sadly, no dogs allowed on the beach, but the walk through the reserve is lovely. Fish & chips at Atlantic Bay are a must!
