All the rooms are comfortable, fully furnished and we think we have tried to think of everything to make this a holiday home away from home. The most written sentiment in our guest books has to be 'great attention to detail,you have thoughtof everything'.

The rates are fully inclusive of all utilities, bedding, linen, towels (if requested) tea towels and a comprehensive supply of cleaning and other sundry goods such as loo rolls, bin bags, kitchen towels, detergent & fabric softner, washing up liquid as well as cooking & olive oils and condiments.
