We have nothing to complain about! The location was perfect, as we were central to everywhere on the island. The cottage had everything we needed, and the owners left leaflets telling us about various places to visit, and also where local supermarkets, restaurants and vital services were in the area. We had contact with the owner on the first day, who said they were on hand for any queries or concerns we had.
