Guest comments
May 2009: "...having stayed in several places from Owners Direct now, yours is definitely one of our faves!!"
May 2009: "Thank you for the time at your lovely house! It really is a great location and very spacious – we did have to have a couple of fires though as the evenings were chilly but we bought some more wood. Thank you also for the wine and bits – very useful when we got there! We also met the gentleman behind your house who gave us potatoes, broad beans and herbs for our dinner!
August 2008: '"A short note to say how much we enjoyed our holiday, made much the better by our stay in Casa Ananda
Most excellent accomodation, and in a very friendly village, within a few days we really did feel like a local...'
