The Magnolias is a beautifully restored, happy house in a lovely corner of this special village. We loved the garden, the kitchen (and the Aga!), and the super comfortable bedrooms. There was a thoughtful guide to the area included. The house is perfectly located for the beach, lots of delicious food options, and some brilliant runs.

Our days out, included visiting the Swannery and Monmouth Beach for the fossils. The village Post Office and shop had an excellent range of local produce. We were fortunate to be there to enjoy the annual Fair; the Church Tower is open to the public on the same afternoon, so we climbed that too. Hide
