We have never stayed in a more fantastic place. The luxury compares to any first class hotel and the views are to die for. Tom the owner was so friendly and helpful. A little late posting this review, unfortunately fell and broke my hip first day home. Will certainly be booking The Firs again. Thank you for a great holiday.
