We spent 5 nights in this property and it exceeded our expectations. The location is spectacular, watching sunrise each morning from the main bed was memorable. The thoughtful design features in the house including doubled glazed windows, fireplace with plenty of wood and heated floors in the bathroom made us feel cosy on winter days. Communication was easy and the owner/managers were very accomodating with our individual requests. Thanks for a great stay, we appreciated your property and highly recommend it.
