Comme à la maison
Pros:

La chaleur de la réception par le propriétaire - on se serait cru invité dans sa propre maison. La décoration de la maison qui offre un bond dans le passé. La situation isolée dans un quartier très calme, mais à quelques minutes de la plage et juste à côté d'un excellent pub. Le petit déjeuner continental, bon et copieux.

Cons:

Quelques poils sur les draps...

Pros:

Excellent location and breakfast. Good parking included, The property was beautifully clean and tastefully decorated.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have been offered a fan as the weather was extremely hot, as was the room although we did have fully opening windows
An EV charge point would be useful,
