The location of the house is perfect.

The location of the house is perfect. The house is about 5 minutes walk from the town centre, 5 minutes drive from the nearest supermarket and about 10 minutes drive from a great beach. The property was spotless when we arrived and was fully stocked with matching crockery and cutlery and there was even some ‘food’ from local artisan stores. Anybody who rents holiday houses will know this is unusual It’s my nature to be critical but I genuinely cannot find anything I could legitimately com
