What our Guests are Saying

Stayed at Beachcomber

Everything sparkling clean, the view of the sea from the balcony and the sofa was perfect. Everything one might need in the kitchen, very comfortable bed and an easy walk to the beach. The house is also a short and pretty walk to the shops and hotels in Port Elliot. We will definitely be returning soon.
