Just perfection !

This is a wonderful home with warm touchings spread throughout. Fabulously and fully equipped kitchen, and absolutely clean and spotless. Just a 2-3 minute walk to town. Could not have found a better place to get the extended family together. Thanks to Nancy and her team for such a wonderful stay.
