Stylish apartment in quiet, convenient location.

The host was lovely and came to greet us on arrival to make sure we had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our holiday. The apartment is perfect, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We will definitely return. Thank you.

There are stairs up to where we stayed and stairs in the flat , probably 24 stairs , and the bathroom is downstairs this is worth considering if staying with an older person .

Otherwise the apartment was very well appointed , very clean and really convenient for local amenities, there were lots of lovely walks and I really enjoyed my stay. The owner was very nice and helpful too. I would definitely rebook
