A big kitchen, we only missed a extractor hood. It is located in a nice village, with planty bars and restaurants. But we enjoyed the scenery at most. Like a beautiful coastline the walk. Thanks for letting us stay. Greetings from the Netherlands.

The house is spacious and clean with everything one might need. Quick access to the heart of the village with superb views. Would recommend and would love to return in the future.
