Beautiful spot , surrounded by trees and a beautiful garden , although there is alot of traffic noise as it's on a corner of a fairly busy road, but it didn't bother us too much, apart from, if its warm, you can't have your windows open in the bedroom, we tried it and it's very noisy, so stick the fan on supplied in your room. .The cottage itself is really lovely, much bigger than I thought, with a lovely balcony to sit on with a private view. The owner was lovely ,left a bottle of wine, unfortunately we don't drink ,so a bottle of milk and a few bits would have been better ,we had to go out again after a very long drive to fetch milk , although later the owner found out and came over with a cup of milk, which was nice of him .My only complaint would be, it's very dusty , lots of cobwebs, especially on the balcony , but the kitchen and bathroom surfaces were very clean etc , and it's very nicely decorated. Perfect location for the many beaches, pubs, cafe etc. One thing I'd say is the stairs up to the lounge from the kitchen are extremely steep ,my little dog couldn't get down them he kept slipping as they are wood not carpet (which would be better and safer) so I had to carry him up and down the entire holiday and watch him to make sure he didn't fall down them . Maybe a bigger dog could manage better .But overall the place is nice and we had a great time, and would definitely recommend.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, despite the rainy weather. The property is as detailed in the listing with a separate toilet downstairs as well as one in the upstairs bathroom. The view from the balcony overlooking the garden is lovely. We were here in February and the property is kept nice and warm by the ample radiators.Good local guides of the area available in the property and we would recommend the takeaway or restaurant Spice Villa
