We enjoyed a peaceful week with fantastic views. Lots of trips out and ferry crossings along with exciting boat trips. Wonderful lunches out lots to explore. The Chalet provided everything needed for a great week’s holiday.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2024
First 7days were lovely. However we had to leave on the 9th June as the access road was due to be closed. Having checked with National Grid the road closure was from 10th to 15th June. There was pedestrian access to the village, but the village offered no facilities. No shop and the two eateries did not cater for my husband’s dietary restrictions. An alternative route was suggested but we were not willing to drive our car up this very steep/narrow track. We had to walk up this track each evening to obtain a wifi/mobile signal and on one occasion a car was coming down it and there was nowhere for it to pass us. We had to walk in front of the car until the bottom in order for it to pass us. We were advised that there was no WiFi supplied at the property but was not advised that we would not be able to get 3/4G or phone signal. We were told that we maybe able to sign into owner’s father’s wifi, if we sat on his driveway, however as this person had recently had surgery he was staying away from his house and obviously switched off his wifi as we could not connect to it. Had we known this we would not have booked this venue. Lovely property if you want isolation. We did not. It was our intention to use this as a base, but without a car this was not viable.
