This was a last minute booking to go scalloping. The house is out in Ozello, about 10 minutes from the main road but feels like another world out there. Close to a great little restaurant too, which was a nice surprise!Check in was a breeze and the home very clean with everything you need. Pretty view of the water with beautiful sunrises to admire from the top floor. Would highly recommend!
