The house was very well equipped, spotless, and conveniently situated for local amenities and hiking trails both from the house and within short driving/bus distances . Entry to the property was simple and went without a hitch. The welcome pack of prosecco, chocolates and biscuits was a delightful, unexpected, addition to the accommodation. Slightly better weather during the week would have made our stay perfect.
