Rose’s House

Perfectly placed in San Sebastián. The owners are just fabulous. They are there if you need them but allow you total privacy. The property is spacious, immaculately clean, the bed , bedding and furnishings are of lovely quality. The kitchen has everything you would ever need. There are all the mod cons. There is also Condiments, washing up liquid, cleaning equipment, washing machine. Lovely Penelope our host kindly left us a bowl of fruit, bottle of wine, ice cream . We regularly had Mangoes of her tree for breakfast which were gorgeous and she even sent us home with a bag full. The garden is peaceful, well maintained with beautiful planting of shrubs and flowers. There are nice shaded areas to lounge or sit. Beautiful views of the sea and mountains. We were able to easily get around La Gomera on the local buses. The bus station and the ferry are all within walking distance. Lots of lovely restaurants nearby. We certainly plan to return to this lovely place.

Absolutely nothing. We even enjoyed the short walk up the hill and steps from the centre of San Sebastián.

The house is located high up from from the main streets of San Sebastian, but it is easy to reach the town and port by means of a series of steep stairs (less than 10 mins on foot). Great views from the lovely, well-tended garden and terrace. Location is quiet and peaceful. House is very comfortable, spacious and well-equipped. It has recently been completely renovated to a very high standard, with a good modern bathroom and nice kitchen. Everything works well. The owners live in the adjoining property and are very kind and helpful. We also enjoyed the company of their cat and tortoise!

Nearest supermarket is down below in the town. This wasn't a problem for us as we used our hire car to do our main food shopping, but if you don't have a car, be prepared to carry shopping up the stairs. Overall, we feel it is still much better to be staying higher up in the town where Rose's House is located than down below, due to the views and tranquility. Life is about compromises!

Everything was perfect! Beautiful garden, superclean and comfortable bed!

This wee place had everything we needed. Accommodation was perfect and we had use of the lovely garden overlooking the town. It also had an outdoor shower which was fantastic after a day of hiking!

Nothing!
