We had three nights at this delightful family run guest house, the staff were very friendly and very welcoming from the moment we drove up. Lovely Italian style rooms, everything you could want in a charming holiday area. The breakfast was yummy, with everything cooked fresh from a full english to eggs benedict. Nothing was too much trouble but as... More

Villa Castollini provided the perfect venue for our daughter's wedding, 30 September 2012. All the guests had a fabulous stay and the preparations for the ceremony on the beach and the reception at the Villa were professionally overseen by Nan, her staff and the recommended service providers. Even a 9 hour power outage didn't cause a ripple on the day.To... More

We spent two nights at Villa Castollini as my sister was celebrating her wedding there as well. The accommodation was neat and tasteful and the view from our room took my breath away. Breakfast in the morning was a treat with our own personal chef - Nan. The wedding took place on a cold grey day but the manner in... More

Nan and Patrick run this beautiful B&B in a delightful way. They are very welcoming and friendly, yet leave you to enjoy the privacy you want. The rooms are stunning. We had the cheapest room which was still wonderfully equipped and spacious although, if it's a view you're after, it may be worth paying a bit more to see the... More
