A lovely setting and vacation home

This is a beautiful dwelling with a marvelous "conservatory" overlooking pasture lands of grazing sheep, cows and horses, with the ocean in the background. There's a "cost" for such loveliness: it's difficult to find. We had to stop twice to ask local people how to find it, and our GPS led us on an amazing circuitous route made for the memory books! Everything about our stay was wonderful, but communication was challenging because the owner does not use VRBO messaging system for communication. Because of meager internet access during our travels it was difficult to communicate with him. Only by expensive telephone calls were we able to connect. But that is a minor hassle in the larger context of a wonderful stay with a most gracious, and concerned, owner.
