Owner was available if you had any problems and very friendly and accommodating. Location was really good with harbour, town and supermarket just minutes walk away. Could have had a few more things in the kitchen to make cooking less of a challenge but overall very happy and would stay again.

One complaint was the shower mat in one of the bathrooms; it was filthy and should have been thrown away and replaced with a new one Apart from that we enjoyed our stay
