An absolutely beautiful bungalow with everything you need & some lovely extra touches to make it home from home. Clean, comfortable & everything is of the highest standard. Great communication from the owner who is also very helpful.

Our fourth stay at Bayside was as exceptional as the previous three. We are always reluctant to leave it behind. The owners clearly work hard to maintain their customers experience. I cannot imagine staying anywhere else on the island.

This is a comfortable, extremely clean home, with absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay. Apart from clothes and food, there is nothing you need to take with you, as it is so well equipped. It's in a perfect location, with Yarmouth a five minute drive away, and the beach a short walk down the road. I can't recommend it highly enough.
