Pinocchio Pension

Top choice in Chungcheongnam-do


Comfortable cottages, with fridges, facing the sea. Find it by walking past the motels to the northern end of Mallipo Beach, stopping only when you see a wooden terrace and Pinocchio on your right. Call for better rates; the owners speak some English.
