I would just like to say that we had an absolutely wonderful time at the villa in March, pity about the weather though! But some things cannot be planned! My parents were very taken aback by the whole experience and they even had a few tears when they saw the villa :-) They have not stopped talking about it since! The surrounding area is beautiful and it is far enough away from the madening crowds! but close enough so as not too be too isolated. It is very handy for the Autodrome (just up the road) which pleased my husband as he had three track days booked there. The villa itself has everything and we all particularly loved the outdoor facilities. Please give Melissa a big thankyou for her help and little touches that helped in making it a pleasurable stay, along with Clive for his handyman skills! Many Thanks again for rentiing out such a beautiful place, we hope to return again someday! Karen, Lee Sam, Katie, Chris & Bev. |

We would like to thank Melissa and Clive for a superb 10 days in Villa Citrus they were both available for any questions by phone or in person at any time. The welcome was excellent and the welcome pack was a lovely surprise. The villa its self was beautifully, clean, tidy and all up to a very high standard. The swimming pool and surrounding area was well kept with Melissa and Clive coming in midweek to clean the pool area and villa. We all had an extremely relaxing time and would not hesitate in recommending Villa Citrus. Many thanks and we hope that we be able to book again in 2013. Michelle & David Selway and friends. |
