Generous, helpful hosts, well equipped little cottage, unbelievable views, and so much to do if you have the time and inclination to leave the house.

What's not to love? Chrissie was always quick to respond to emails, provided excellent recommendations, comprehensive info, beautifully appointed accommodations, gorgeous views and a large shower!!!

Highly recommend Pane et Vino (spelling incorrect!) but David will tell you where it is...its local to the accomodation and it's... More
