Set in a peaceful location, it has excellent facilities for outdoor living including a sizeable terrace, a tranquil garden, from which guests can appreciate the glorious views of the surrounding countryside, and a heated swimming pool (10m x 5m, depth 0m80 – 1m80), shared with the friendly and welcoming English owners. Guests are welcome to wander around the large garden and to relax on the natural stone benches beside the pool or in the shade of the grassy area at the back of the property.
