> house stands a couple of hundred metres above the parking area and the last stretch is on foot,

## Not published here

- Nightly rates or extra-bed charges. Prices change; check them on the booking channel
- The number of reviews behind the 9.0 score. It appears in this page's JSON-LD only, because a
  count rendered into copy goes stale
- A bar. The directory record this page replaced listed a garden bar; the live listing does not
  carry one and the photographs show a terrace counter, so no bar is claimed
- A telephone number or a website. Neither the Maps panel nor the listing publishes one
- Breakfast. The only mention on the listing is an unanswered visitor question
