We spent a few evenings parked by the beach in our home on wheels, with a bottle of wine and the newspapers, watching the world go by on the sands. We did do some walking too! See you again one day. Lynne and Robert, Suffolk.”

“What a fantastic place to stay! We loved the aesthetics of the cottage, the village, the beach, estuary birds, cowrie shells, local beer, the bus service and even the dead puffin (especially since we didn't see a live one - yet). We hope to be back. The Bonney and Whelan families (part of), Reading / Edinburgh / London”
