We had a great time. The home was amazing with all that we needed. There were some lovely provisions, eggs, bread, milk and other essentials which was a nice touch. Lou, the host, was away but her partner James and their dog made us very welcome. The location was wonderful, overlooking the harbour and the town which was in easy walking distance. We would definitely recommend staying here.

We loved our two retreat at Lou & James fabulous new studio apartment. What a gorgeous touch to have gourmet goodies, some made by Lou herself, fresh eggs & herbs from their cottage. Everything here is 'quality' from start to finish. It was exceptional and we'll be back.
