Comfortable guest house with outstanding host

Mariana is the most wonderful host. She couldn’t do enough to make our stay comfortable even to booking restaurants for us and ensuring we had a good table. The guest house is furnished in an old fashioned style which suits the house. Our room was extremely spacious as was the bathroom. Outside a large terrace was well furnished and overlooked the beautiful garden and over to the mountains. Walkable to town and restaurants.

verything you could wish for-and more!

Everything was perfect. The room was spacious, bed was very comfortable. The owner Daniella was amazing - so friendly and helpful. You basically get the run of the house, with complimentary coffee, cake and cookies, not to mention sherry and muscadel - so many lovely touches with this guest house. I highly recommend.

Хороший guesthouse.

Вполне хороший guesthouse. Расположен немного в стороне от основных ресторанов, но т.к. мы были на машине, то все было удобно . Хороший WiFi и отличный кондиционер. Хороший завтрак и комфортная комната. Все было отлично. Единственное но - бассейн очень маленького размера. Плавать невозможено, только можно окунуться.
