Booking & prices

An antique iron key on a wooden table beside a handwritten welcome card

Why book direct instead of on Airbnb?

Booking with us directly costs about 14% less, because there are no platform service fees. You also deal with the people who live here, which means flexible arrival times, honest advice and a better room if one comes free.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancel more than eight weeks before arrival and we refund your deposit in full, minus bank fees. After that, we refund whatever we can re-let. We recommend travel insurance.

N° 02

Staying here

The pool terrace with sun loungers and parasols above the valley

Is the pool heated?

The saltwater pool is solar-heated and open from mid-April to mid-October. It is private to the house, with sun loungers, an outdoor shower and a view straight down the valley.

Are children and dogs welcome?

Children of all ages are welcome; cots and high chairs are free. Well-behaved dogs are welcome for €15 a night. The pool is not fenced, so please supervise small children.

Getting here

What time is check-in and check-out?

Check-in is from 4 pm and check-out by 10 am. Tell us your flight and we will be flexible whenever the house is free. On high-summer Saturdays the times are fixed.

The house guide

Breakfast on the kitchen table: bread, olive oil, honey, coffee and the house guide

Is there good wi-fi?

Yes, fibre throughout the house at around 145 Mbps, fast enough for video calls. The network name and password are on the card by the kitchen door.
