Reviews

Fantastic villa and is exactly as described on trip adviser. As the villa is owned and managed by Richard and Noirin you feel a very personal touch from the welcoming basket to the help and advice from Richard when you arrive. The villa is very well equiped and comfortable. Although we were there out of season as long as you have a car there was still plenty to do and see with the help of the information pack. The bakery and supermarket were just a short walk away, the markets were very helpful and well worth a visit. The villa is very tranquil and totally secluded and just the ticket for a very relaxing holiday and we will be returning in the not to distant future |

The villa was to a very high standard and well equipped. Very spacious with a lovely outdoor pool area. The owners were excellent and always on hand to assist and advise on any query we may have had. The villa is located very close to local amenities. Excellent bakers,butchers and restraunts. Lovely beach only a few minutes walk from the villa. Had such a great relaxing holiday that we have booked again for next year! |
