With views over the owner's carefully-tended gardens and a little village lane, this attractive apartment has been thoughtfully furnished and equipped with everything you need for self-catering experience! There's character sloping ceilings but ample headroom for taller guests, a super well-equipped kitchen area, with an adjacent breakfast bar, as well as dining and sitting areas, all attractively decorated and imaginatively set out, together with a plush bedroom with a king-size double bed and a super shower. A really lovely base to return to after your adventurous days out! Outside, you can enjoy sipping a glass of your favourite tipple on your private patio or stroll around the owner's much admired gardens.
