Friendly owner but let managed by agent who dealt with any difficulties by frequent communication. The apartment has excellent laundry facilities for longer stays and overlooks a lovely garden tended by the owner. Comfortable bed with plenty of wardrobe spaces. Lots of hot water and a good shower. A steep drive to the entrance and a large garage. A very convenient position for buses or the beach the other way.
