    “Absolutely gorgeous home.”

    We loved it and felt really relaxed. The ‘view’ was exceptional and so calming. The ability to properly live in the house was really easy. We had all we needed. Even though the walk to town is a little hike, it was a lovely hike! Will definitely recommend - in fact we already have. We will absolutely come back. The only comment I have would be given the size of the bedrooms, a bigger bed would be a lovely addition.
