    Love the place and the accommodation didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend and highly likely we’ll be back

  • Joseph

    It is well equipped with plenty of storage space, but it may be a bit of a squash for 4 adults. Dust in corners and cobwebs on the lampshades suggests that the cleaning prior to our arrival was insufficient. The wifi code is not provided in the information pack (you have to use your initiative to locate the router behind a chair and then find it on the back of the router!). The property is accessed via steps which, although not an issue to us, could present difficulties for some and this is not readily evident from the property description. HOWEVER, the biggest issue is parking. This is managed by a 3rd party (PPS) and it is clear from other reviews and conversations with other residents / holiday makers that there are frequent issues with them. The owner's response to other reviews on this matter is "sorry",. but unfortunately that does not solve the problem. In our case the ticket machine took my credit card payment but didn't print a ticket. Trying to make contact with PPS was fraught with difficulty, and although I was able to reach them eventually via email the whole week was overshadowed by this ongoing issue. The solution lies with parking to be included within the rental, and that is an issue for the chalet owner / site owner to resolve.

    The review of the property was very accurate and yes there is no building in front of this property, which gives you a great view of the bay. Will stay again as it is a great spot.
