The people manning reception were friendly and helpful. Peter particularly looked after me, coming to my aid out-of-hours to retrieve something I had left in our room after I checked out. A lovely, peaceful place to stay and enjoy the boats and the sounds of the waves from the balcony and from within our room. Thank you!
