"A wonderful experience with friendly staff. Great dining experience with a changing menu. The rooms are right on the bay which is very close to swimming beaches and perfect at night for star gazing. We stayed 3 night's but could have stayed for longer."

"We thought the resort was lovely, esp being so close to beach. Yes I did swim each day even though it was august. We were told property was wheelchair friendly but you need to have some Mobility. A lot of gravel made chair use a little tricky and a couple More grab rails in bathroom would have been good along with a bench in shower. Breakfast each day would be good as you are a short drive to town. Need to plan for dinner as Sunday and Monday restaurant is shut. Room Could have had a slightly better clean each day as I did leave a bit of sand about from The beach. But beds/heating/location and comfort were amazing."

"We really enjoyed our stay at ensorcelled. It was a great space for family to come together, with good-sized shared spaces, but spaced out bedrooms, so you still had privacy. Amazing views and easy access to the beach, definitely would visit again!"
