"What an incredible and unique place, set in a historic mountain village. Modern amenities, but still feels like stepping back in time. The local hiking was breathtakingly beautiful."

"Friendly people in a beautiful location. "

Handy supermarket, nice garden and relaxing place to chill (as my daughter says)."
