Had a fantastic stay at the villa, the bathroom is a little small but the outside space makes up for it.
Very friendly owners, the only gripe was the village was a little strange.
We was in the mini market one night when the owners were involved in a full on Fist Fight with another shop owner which frightened my partner and daughter..so put a dampener on visiting the village.

Petit problème technique vite résolu , communication des gestionnaires facile , disponible .
Le seul hic, l absence de lave vaisselle pourtant mentionné dans les équipements.
Véhicule indispensable
