The house was a bit quirky....definitely "historic".
There was a strong smell in the house. I identified it as mildew, as my allergies to the same kicked in immediately. I wouldn't recommend it to people who have this type of allergy. That said, there was a valiant effort to eradicate the smell (so it was known entity) as fans were on amd windows open when we arrived.
There wasn't a lot close by in the way of restaurants. Lots of bar food if you're into that.
Beds were comfy and the place was clean and our dog loved getting stinky on the beach, so overall we enjoyed our stay.
