The local wildlife enthralled our son, the hot tub was a hit for all and the wood fired oven and stove allowed for some perfectly cooked pizzas.

    The owners are lovely, knowledgeable and their attention to detail is spot on. Our stay at Bumble was wonderful - we arrived in Storm Antoni but also saw strong sunshine during our week, yet our whole stay was comfortable, clean and pretty luxurious. The local wildlife enthralled our son, the hot tub was a hit for all and the wood fired oven and stove allowed for some perfectly cooked pizzas. Everything about this place is well thought out and homely - a small thing (but ever so important after a beach day), the shower is hot and powerful. Cannot recommend enough!
