August 2005 -
'thank you so much for providing such a wonderful holiday base, we loved Casa Pequeña with its spiral staircase & sun-drenched roof terrace, looking out onto those lush gardens. We particularly appreciated how well stocked the house was ... we really felt that you went over and above the necessary, to provide a really idyllic holiday villa'.
