Steve and Sue were extremely helpful and welcoming. The property is in a beautiful location and we saw more and more wildlife as the week went on.
Sue prepared a superb meal for our first night, but in fact we had sufficient for the next day too. The Bastide towns are well worth exploring.
We would happily recommend this property. We had a marvellous timeGuest rating:
