Lovely location overlooking the sea. Very clean and fresh, and nicely decorated.<br/>No user guides for any appliances in the property or television. No information on local amenities that might be needed, doctor, dentist etc. Limited recommendations for local places of interest, activities, restaurants etc. <br/>Hardly any cooking equipment: No scales/measuring jug, mixing bowls, grater, sieve, blender, baking dishes, chopping board, whisk etc. Limited saucepans, bowls, dishes. No tea pot - had to buy one. <br/>Smart TV with plenty of channels, but NO terrestrial channels available.<br/>WiFi failed on first night - good response - fixed next day.
