What people say

We were greeted personally by the owners and made extremely welcome. We were given information about our location and provided with a very good street map. We were also given good information on places to eat and interesting excursions. The owners were always available, in our all too short stay (2 nights). We have no complaints whatsoever and would reccommend to anyone. The hosts Cecille and Collen made us very welcome and Colleen couldn't help out enough in terms of local advice and suggestions. The House is beautilful in a great location, we would thoroughly recommend staying here.
