An idyllic location for a family getaway. Tranquil, yet close, with stunning views. The house was well equipped and we loved the little beach just down the stairs. The host was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommended.

Most remarkable location perched literally on rock ledge edge! Stunning location. Host very welcoming and mid stay check in also. House one of the best stocked homes we've stayed in. Generous supplies and in home items to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Just beware the grassy slop access from street to house, not an easy climb back up hill if you're not particularly fit. But well worth the effort if you choose.

What a wonderful weekend. The property was well equipped and clean. Such a beautiful outlook, even from the living room, and the ferry, shops and eateries are only a few minutes walk. Yes, entering the property from the street was a little challenging, but it was well worth the effort. Thanks, Nav, we had the most enjoyable stay.

I would like to provide some feedback on this property as I don't believe the "path situation" is presented to the public as it should be. The view from this house is obviously outstanding and ultimately what attracts people to the property. However, the entrance to the property is ridiculous in fact I would go as far as to say it is dangerous and a risk to anyone! There is no real path and the gradient is quite steep with no real support, it is just over grown grass. My children are all extremely fit young adults and they struggled with the path (which isn't even a path!) particularly when carrying luggage. My other disappointment was the standard of accomodation. No toiletries provided at all (other than hand soap) and things were old and rusty in the ensuite bathroom - not what you expect when you are paying these rates! We were unlucky enough to arrive on a 39 degree day and again - no air conditioning in the property! I was also amused by their "house book" which requests that guests help their house keeper by emptying the bins - I am sorry but do they not realise that when you are on holiday and paying top dollar that is exactly what you expect the house keeper to do! Anyway, needless to say overall it was fine but very disappointing - the owners must have high insurance as the path is a definite risk to anyone renting this property!
