Amazing house and owners

The house is as beautiful, if not more than the pictures. Everything is immaculate, there is not a spot of dust anywhere. The hosts were very friendly and extremely helpful. We booked a couple of trips while we were ther and the host made sure we had a good price and were not charged for pick up. The breakfast was extremely generous. Items were left in the fridge for us to use at our leisure and the bread was delivered fresh and left on the gate by the baker, also generous and we couldn't get through it. They even topped up a few breakfast items midweek and it was again very, very generous. The rooms are beautiful but perhaps the beds are not large enough for a couple. The sheets and towels are crisp and clean and could be changed mid-week. The kitchen has great facilities and the BBQ came with coal and lighters and equipment so it was very easy to get started and we enjoyed the beautiful outdoor cooking area and BBQ with view on the fantastic garden very much. The garden is wonderful, we did not use the volleball net as it was a little hot for us but it was a nice idea. Overall the house and garden are beautiful and very pleasant to stay in.

The pool is shared and in the neighbour house garden. This is not clear in the reservation and we were very disappointed by it as it was one of the main reasons we booked this house. We wanted to catch up and swim in the pool. There was an overlap of guests and it seemed that the second set of guests were also not aware of this and were also disappointed. It made for an awkward time and spoiled the trip. The pool is around 3m2 and 1.2m deep. It's only good for cooling off in and floating about. The images are deceptive, it is not large enough for swimming, which was annoying as we are swimmers that would have enjoyed the oppertunity for a few laps. It is definitely not large enough to share.

The property and home are lovingly and incredibly well kept. No detail is overlooked! Vilma and Carlos were kind and caring hosts who went above and beyond. I can’t wait to stay here again!

No complaints! It’s an older house and bound to have some small issues (for example the flue adjuster was loose) but Vilma explained how to work the fireplace and it was perfect despite the small issue. It really is a wonderful property

Historical, unique, beautiful & magical house, spectacular views! Comfortable beds, interior and very good breakfast. Welcoming and friendly owners.

Breakfast was perfect. Fresh bread and pastry delivered daily. The location is excellent!
