Amazing location for a bargain price

A really good accommodation with Marco being a super helpful host. Good WiFi and amazing location with easy access to N2. You need to have a car as there isn't much in immediate vicinity. If all 3 guests came with cars then parking might be tight but we didn't have any problems
