Beautiful, picturesque stay with views from every angle. We didn’t end up staying the whole time due to circumstances at the stay beyond the owner’s control but overall our stay was lovely. Perfect location, five minute walk from the town. The host was kind and responsive and dealt with the issue we had quickly and respectfully.
