This is the place we first stayed at and fell in love with this area as a result. We have been back innumerable times and it remains one of my favourite places to eat and enjoy an evening or afternoon. Sunday Lunches are legendary. Live entertainment most weekends.

Lovely little town on the beach. You can walk here from the house following the walkway along the beach. About a 10 mile round trip. Fortunately there are many eateries or bars to enjoy refreshment before the return trip or grab a cab aprox 10 euros.
