We were just outside of town. The house looked onto the bay. It was in a quiet street.The house was immaculate, the beds were amazing, the woodfire was great as well. Everything you need for a short stay was there. It was very easy to communicate with the owner. Arrival and departure was very easy, all instructions about parking was clearly communicated.

Lovely property- had everything our family of four needed. Clean and well appointed. The only downside was communication- we arrived to check-in 10 minutes after the appointed time (2pm) and the cleaners were still in the middle of cleaning the house. We would have been fine with this if the delay had been communicated to us, but it wasn't. We had to get in touch with the host, who claimed to be unaware of the situation. We were able to check in almost an hour later. Other than this hiccup, we loved the property.
