The house was excellent and very well equipped. The only downside was the driveway parking. You really need a 4x4 and have nerves of steel to even consider using the drive. Fortunately we were not there during high season and could easily find necessary parking on the street. I would not confident of this during the summer. Apart from this, the houRead morese was everything that it promised. Hide
