A shared entrance and stairs lead to the private door into this welcoming and homely apartment. Once inside, the hallway leads to the charming open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Here you can relax beside the TV or enjoy preparing leisurely meals in the kitchen before settling down at the table. A steep ladder-style staircase leads to the mezzanine floor above (care should be taken when climbing and descending the stairs). Tucked into the eaves is a cosy snug area, complete with an inviting sofa bed (available on request) and a second TV, making this the perfect spot for watching your favourite film after a day spent exploring. The property has a double bedroom and the bathroom.

The first floor apartment was comfortable and had on-site parking. The 'attic' room was cute, but we climbed down the ladder stairs gingerly and didn't go up again! A well equipped kitchen. P.S. take loo roll!

Very convenient for access to the town and beach. Level walking. Nice to have the Friday market so close too.
