Summary: As described. Hidden Gem with very well appointed 2 bdrm studio. Nothing too much of a bother for wonderful hosts Sue and James. The Logde looked fabulous for larger groups. Wonderful surrounds with a myriad of birdlife and an old olive grove. Peaceful. Plenty to do in easy proximity, or do nothing in a serene environment. Very happy. We will return.
