Entering through the front door we were greeted with a large, bright and inviting home. There was plenty of room for 8 Adults and we took full advantage of the outdoor entertaining area. A beautiful garden was the perfect back drop for pre Wedding photos. The host was so helpful through the whole experience and was prompt to reply to my emails.This property exceeded our expectations and I have already recommended it to other friends. We hope to stay again in the not to distant future.

Exceptional home!
The property is everything we could ask for and more! We stayed over Christmas holidays. It could easily and comfortably cater to 11 adults and an infant. Close to the beach, shops and attractions but far enough from the busy streets. Clean and more than enough cutleries, pots/pans, platess, serving wares, etc available. Lawn and garden is well-maintained. Great communication with Margaret :) Highly recommend and will dlnot hesitate to book again.
