Fabulous location, really clean house, fantastic views and easy access to lots of surrounding villages and towns (by car). We had a fantastic few days with family. Would recommend.

This was our second visit to Llamedos and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. It works very well for us in terms of location, and we'd be very happy to return yet again. A special shout-out to Claire and her cleaning / preparation team who do a wonderful job of making it ready for visitors/
