Brilliant 4-bedroom villa in welcoming St James perfect for relaxing stays

10/10 Excellent
"Highly recommended. Stunning place, perfectly situated, well-appointed. It has been beautifully decorated in keeping with its historical nature. Breakfast overlooking the ocean was magic. It's a safe, short walk to the beach (we swam first thing every morning). If I were to critique something, it's well-maintained for its age and proximity to the sea, but a few touch-ups, mostly outside and to the slightly tired patio furniture, would be welcome. Note, there is an internal parking spot for 1 car only."
