We could not have asked for anything more from this wonderful home. John was so helpful and welcomed us warmly. The house was warm and spacious and the kitchen extremely well equipped, which made for great home cooked meals with our gathering of close friends and family. The location is spectacular and the views from the house continually changed aRead morend were breathtaking. Great walks and beaches nearby. Also close enough to enjoy Roundstone and Cliften. Cannot recommend this home more. Hide
