Overall we had a very nice stay here! The location and views are unbeatable. Very short walk into town and an AMAZING bakery. The house itself is on the small size for the number of people we had (5 adults/1 toddler), particularly as all but one rooms are extremely small, and it is not very toddler-friendly. Few amenities were provided (for a week long stay there were just a couple rolls of TP, a very small bottle of dishwashing liquid, two tiny soaps, no kitchen basics, etc.), but the hosts left a lovely gift basket of local goods and the market is a very short walk to get supplies. Communication was a little challenging; hosts over-communicated before our arrival, seeming annoyed if we didn't respond immediately, and yet when we had an issue with hot water it took more than 12 hours to get a hold of anyone. It turned out there was a house binder we had been missing. They were very kind and brought it in person (with a bottle of Prosecco) and in the end it all worked out and we had a fantastic week. We would definitely be back, with a smaller group and no toddler.
