A very comfortable bungalow in an amazing location. We wanted to look at the stunning view as much as we could. Visiting other places was easy as many places were in easy reach. Our dog loved the garden which was very safe for him. The only downside was that the bungalow could have been cleaner. All in all, a quiet relaxing week.
