It was beautiful. It is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. It takes at least 30 minutes to get down the hill and out of town if you want to travel anywhere, but you just allow for that.
The view. It is situated so that you can enjoy both the sunrise and the sunset over the water.
It was rather starkly furnished and the lighting in the living room, dining room, and upstairs study was poor.
The town is very quaint and the people are so friendly. It was hard to figure out when the stores were open and when they were closed. Even though they would tell you their hours, or post their hours on the door, you couldn't rely on it. They may post they're open at 4:30 pm, but at 5:00 pm, they were still closed, or say they closed for the afternoon at 12:30, but at 11:30 am they were already closed. You just have to take your best guess.
