Pure romance
We spent the first week of July in this lovely, romantic holiday home. The house is furnished stylishly and with a lot of attention to detail. We lacked for nothing. The wonderful garden around the pool rounded off a week of very relaxing vacation. We will definitely come back.
The house is 100% recommendable...
