This is a beautiful house, really substantial and comfortable, with lots of little details just right. You can tell that it is the owner’s family holiday home as it is so well-equipped. All the things that can often be a bit dicey in a holiday let are excellent - good knives, linens, air con, WiFi, showers, plenty of cushions and books.
It is well situated within the holiday village conveniently close to the little shop and the pool centre. The walking route down to the town beach is a steep hill - about 15 mins down but definitely about 20 mins up! For guests with any mobility issues, a car is a definite plus.
Communication with the owner has been excellent throughout and he sorted the one issue that arose while we were there really promptly. Charlie was very considerate, keeping an eye on the news over possible flight delays (we were going home a couple of days after the UK air traffic control problems closed UK airspace) and offering a late check out or even possibly a return to the house if we were stranded. We weren’t much delayed in the end but very grateful for the kind offer.
The property has parking and we were glad of the car for getting out and about - we had a day in the mountains, a day in Lagos, a couple of days at the beautiful Caneiros beach about ten minutes away where we winced at the cost of the sun beds but then decided it was worth it.
The house is very true to the listing and you can feel confident that it will meet or exceed expectations.
