We stayed for two nights, completely fog-bound for most of the time, but didn't mind at all, such a pleasure it was to stay in such spacious, comfortable, beautifully designed accommodation, filled with antiques and art works reflecting the taste and generosity of our host. We particularly appreciated the Sony speaker we could plug our music into, the wraps over the chairs for chillier evenings, and being able to take in the whole view from the extremely comfortable bed. Also, the fresh fruit and vegetables from Kenneth’s garden.

The house (a converted donkey-shed) is full of light and just a short step from the sea. Surrounded by a swathe of wild flowers, the flagstone terrace was a lovely place to eat breakfast in the sunshine on our last day. We’d have stayed longer if we could, and will certainly be back.
