Feb 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic property Had to make very quick arrangements for a family funeral. Elsa and Peter communicated extremely fast and catered to our needs, for which we were eternally grateful. The property itself is gorgeous and very well kept with all of the amenities we needed. The kitchen is superbly laid out and easy to use. The bedrooms are plenty big enough and very comfortable. Thank you so much from all of my family for making our stay so easy. ##### Mick H.
