Choosing and booking your stay.
How do I book?
Use BOOK NOW or the booking form on an accommodation’s detailed page. Choose your dates and select the accommodation in the form. Check the guest count, total and conditions before confirming.
Are all stays at the same address?
No. Old Pig, Old Donkey and Old Cellar are suites at Casa Brava. Monte Lusitano is a separate entire house. Read the selected accommodation’s page for its facilities and shared spaces.
Do the same conditions apply everywhere?
Minimum stays, arrival times, deposits, cancellation rules and optional services depend on the accommodation and offer. Read the conditions shown for your dates before confirming.
How do I choose the right accommodation?
Compare capacity, sleeping arrangements, cooking facilities and access in each detailed page. Contact Julie and Marco before booking about pets, babies or specific mobility needs.
