July 2008 holiday

What a fantastic location, and property! Very tranquil and private. Mountain views. Ideal if you want the country retreat at the end of the day.
We were two families with five teenage girls between us. We all had a great time, and loved the house.
There was loads of room, and is a beautiful place, well kitted out.
Layout was two self contained appartments, which gave both families their own private space, bathrooms, kitchens and there was a washing machine. Plus satelite TV, if you want it.
Entertainment is in Alghero, as there is only the TV at the house for entetainment, (unless you take your own). So you need a car, as there is nothing within walking distance. But saying that it is still close enough to the town to be convienient. Local bakers and supermarket are approx 2-3 km, just as you get to the town.
There are loads of great restaurants, bars, and entertainment in Alghero. Shops are open in the old town till about 12pm. So a passagiata with an ice cream after dinner is highly recommended, also you get some lovely boats in the port...
Beaches are a 10-15min drive away max. If you take the time go towards Fertillia (North of Alghero out past Lido) you will find them fairly quiet...Although there are beaches south as well...It is worth noting there are some further out which provide great snorkelling. And there is diving, and boat hire as well in alghero.
If you want the mountains simply turn right out of the property and you will be there in about 5min. A great place to explore in the car, or cycle /walk if you fancy a change to the beach. Again, there is nothing within walking distance...
We will be going back to this property again, one of the best we've stayed at.
