Sarah
We stayed in November and found the flat to very warm and cozy. The decor was very fresh and the flat spotlessly clean, comfortable sofa and bed, and well equipped kitchen. Teresa and Alan were great hosts, and we would definitely like to return in the future.

The apartment was very clean, cosy and comfortable. Great bed and shower with plenty of hot water. The view of the sea from here is fabulous. We even saw dolphins swim by. Lovely welcome pack and a delicious cake baked by Teresa. Hosts were very helpful and we could easily get in touch if necessary. Great walks from door of the apartment and plenty of super places to visit in area. Thank you for an amazing holiday.

Warm and cosy, beautiful sea view, quiet and spotlessly clean, with several thoughtful extras. Even though the weather wasnât too good, we could still enjoy our surroundings
