Great stay, had everything we needed, and its location near a bakery, café and grocery store was very convenient. The layout and content of the property provided a really nice place to stay while exploring that part of the southern coast. The large covered veranda with BBQ and outdoor eating and sitting areas provided a nice space to remove our wet and muddy boots after a day of hiking, and staging for unloading/loading the car and it made using the grill an appealing part of making dinner, rather than the unpleasant burden it can be (especially when raining) at other properties. The bird that appeared to be nesting in one of the potted plants under the veranda cover, and had the coolest vocalizations, provided interesting and enjoyable daily encounters. The two TV rooms, one with satellite hookup and the other with DVD, provided great relaxing spaces that we retreated to after the short daylight hours of early spring. The well-equipped kitchen was large enough to use the table in the middle of it without feeling like it was squeezed in there.
But let me also touch upon a weak spot we encountered that may be unique to the particular week we stayed. We were definitely quite chilly in the mornings and evenings during our early spring stay. Not sure if that was during a particularly cold and rainy week, and we could have stoked the fireplace, but that wasn't a particularly appealing option for daily heating on our 6-night stay. We did bring the small electrical oil heater out to help take the chill off in the room where it was located. Otherwise, our stay was wonderful. We would definitely return if ever in the area again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others.
