User reviews
"This location is a great spot for seafood lovers, with excellent value. Recent investments in new decking and tidying up make it an even better spot. Plus, it's located in a peaceful area with its own beach! You can visit all year round, and there's even a barbecue. All in all, it's a very relaxed and laid back place."
