Inside, you’ll be greeted with quality wooden floors, large windows and carefully chosen furniture offering a high standard of living. The open-plan living space is cosy and functional.

Once you’ve prepped yummy holiday meals, sit down to eat them in the spacious dining area. You’ll also have a grassy garden which integrates seamlessly into the surrounding landscaped grounds. It contains a hot tub for stargazing, a dining table with chairs and a BBQ for al fresco cooking.

The best compliment is to say we will be back, thats for sure. Honestly this is one of the best small stays we have had, brilliant location, very well specced apartment, the washer /dryer combi really did us a favour after a wet hike and the stars we saw sitting in the hot tub were phenomenal. Could not recommend this enough. The fit and finish is Read moresecond to none, everything you could need or ask for, and the bath is huge. The underfloor heating is great too! Thanks Charles Best, Philip and Amy Hide
