Casa monte clara is just lovley, everything you nead is there for you, if you love rustic rural this is the place for you. The pool are is very private and we enjoyed many days and evenings, just enjoying the peace and tranquility.The views are to die for as the sun comes up & goes down you see somthing differant every time you look , you dont get tired of the view . you do need a car as the walk to the local village is a bit steep but saying that the local goat hurder does it and he looks 80 if a day so maybe we were just lazy ! we didnt realy use any restaurants as we loved to eat outside the villa using the bbq .the village has all the bits you nead the butchers was nice and the supermacado had all the bits you neaded , the chemist was very good when i was'nt to well and the doctors was very helpfull you will nead E111 and take a photocopy off it as it will be required. The owner Lisa was on the end of a phone if we required any help she sounded lovley but we just passed in the wind sadley didnt get a chance to meet. this is a realy lovley place to stay and we will be going back. i would recommend this to couples mostley its romantic quite and away from it all but only a car drive away to any bars ect you may want. mark and Lou 2008
