Beautiful old villa apartment in charming setting.
Lovely old home with plenty of space. Situated at the end of a drive so was very quiet. Host Terry was very accommodating and easy to get hold of.

Location was good. Definitely needs upgrading. Toilet kept running. Bodum coffee maker supplied but not enough coffee to make even one cup. We would not choose to stay here again.
