Owner profile
About the owner
We bought the house 5 years ago whilst holidaying in the area. The location was lovely and the view from the upstairs terrace was so stunning that we couldn't resist it. As we are teachers in the UK we get to spend lots of time there during the school holidays and our friends and family also love it. The house is almost always full from April to September. We've rented it out for a few weeks each year and many of our tenants have returned the following year.
