Ben and Yordanka’s place is spacious and set in a beautiful landscape. There were four of us, but it would more than easily host eight guests.
We visited during the end of the winter, so most of the island was quiet for the off-season. The house’s location was perfect for getting some reading and work done.
Bad weather and a cancelled ferry meant we had to extend our stay by one day, which Ben and Yordanka made very easy. They were also very quick to respond to all our queries during our stay. Ben’s uncle delivered some firewood to our door in advance of the blizzard in case the power went out in the storm (which it did not), which was incredibly helpful. Ben and Yordanka also had the driveway plowed so we could exit easily the next day.
The house is a lovely place for reflection and star-gazing; walking to town is possible, though having a car is probably best. We rented bikes in town for a day and were able to see most of the island. The kitchen is very well stocked, and if you love to cook you’ll find most of what you need. Just a small heads-up that the internet speed isn’t great, so come ready to enjoy the outdoors, play some board games (there’s a good collection in the house!) and read by the fire rather than stream Netflix.
