The property is well maintained. Some rooms are a bit seasoned but very well up to our needs (and the kitchen is being refurbished while I write this). The house is well stocked with all the essentials, not like some other properties where one finds one plate, one knife, one glass per person: this is all very plentiful here, just like at home. Three times per week, the grounds and pool are kept, everything is in an immaculate condition. The property benefits from complete privacy. The local property manager is extremely responsive, helpful, competent and friendly, always there if required but never intrusive. There is some basic public transport available but we never used it - a hire car is probably the better option. Quality groceries shopping, restaurants, cafes are all nearby as is a selection of historic towns to view. A good choice of beaches is close, some rather natural, some with different types of facilities, all very nice. Thanks a lot for having us!
