Reviews
Excellent communication from our host with clear directions to the house and a thoughtful guidebook in the property.
It’s worth being aware that the bathroom is down a very steep shallow set of steps and might be tricky for small children or if you have mobility problems.
We loved our stay and would definitely return if fortunate enough to come back to this stunning country.
