I have just returned home after a week with my wife and 3 girls all aged under 6. I have to say that this has been the most relaxing holiday that I have been on for a long time. I mainly put this down to the accommodation that we stayed in. It was just perfect! The house was extremely spacious both inside and out, very safe for youngsters and it waRead mores spotless upon arrival. It had all of the appliances that a family would need and it really did feel like a home from home. Excellent value for money. The location was perfect as it meant that we could explore all corners of the island within a max 20 min drive. The welcome that we received was really warm and genuine. Thank you to Elfred and his family. We will certainly be booking this accommodation again. Hide
