You can stay in most of the accommodations we represent on a bed only or bed & breakfast basis. However, there are a number of visits, guided walks and day tours that one can do from these locations. What we recommend is that you look at what each of the accommodations offers before choosing to stay there. You can then book these before hand with us, directly with the accommodation or, in most cases, simply work it out when you get there. Some tours may require pre-booking and we will advise you of this where necessary. Some accommodations may offer a package, including meals and excursions as an alternative to just B&B. This will be indicated in the prices list.
Please note that all of the prices we publish are the actual rates for each accommodation and include all local taxes. |
