Response from the owner Thanks for the lovely comments. Glad you had a great stay. Come again. Very welcome.Sorry you had such an early start and couldn't hang around longer. PS. You only got breakfast because you know Alice. We generally don't feed people as they have a choice of tavernas nearby. But we'd never see anyone starve. We always have biscuits and cakes.
