Living Spaces
The living areas and kitchen are adorned with new flooring and paint making them feel very fresh and cheerful. Well-equipped for extended stays!

A charming foyer welcomes guests. Adorned by colors of the sea, it's a great place to kick off your shoes and begin enjoying your coastal getaway. Flanked by windows on three sides, it's a warm, sunny place to enjoy a cup of tea, read and relax on the settee.

The living room has a comfortable sofa with chaise arranged near the wood stove and wifi-enabled Smart TV (no cable) making for a cozy movie nights using your own streaming subscriptions or a few free apps that are also available on the TV.
