Excellent accomodation. Very clean and comfortable.A new area for us to explore but surprised that the beaches were too rocky for swimming.A bit disappointed that there were problems with the Local Sewerage Pump across the road from Bach and the smell was nauseating at times.Host has been notified of this problem.
