Needs some substantial damp proofing work. Possibly some form of constant gentle air flow. Window locks that can be made secure! Beautiful sea view from the apartment and a few minutes walk to the local shops and places to eat.

Cowries is a great place to stay village location and sea ideal for swimming a few steps away. Great walking pub, shop, and cafe within walking distance. Off road parking a bonus ideal bolt hole for two at a reasonable price.
