Some more comfortable chairs for sitting outside. Blinds on the windows downstairs to block the glare of the evening sunInstructions for entry to the property weren’t provided. Luckily the front door is open. Soap provided in soap dispensers in all bathrooms rather than one bar of soap in one bathroom

seascape is a wonderful house in a magical place. Incredible views everywhere, gorgeous walks and absolute peace. The house itself is well designed, comfortable, and extraordinarily well equipped . The view from the gigantic living room window is breathtaking. The owner is kind and accommodating. I could not recommend it more, we loved it!
