    The shower was really nice and easy to use. It was also great that a fan was provided in the room as the weather was very warm. The fridge in the room (in a cupboard) was a nice bonus :) Jenny the property owner is warm, friendly and helpful. Fab...

    The hosts left a very detailed book about all the things to do in the local area, which was a nice idea. We were only there overnight to catch a ferry, so couldn't visit any sites though.
