Home truths
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free parking here. Please note, the last 500m of the road leading up to this villa is unpaved but in good condition.
This home is spread over three levels and may not suit guests with limited mobility.
The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
The pool is for seasonal use from April to the end of November, weather permitting. It’s unfenced, so if you’re bringing little ones, they’ll need to be supervised at all times. Pool towels are provided, so you can pack a little lighter.
