Annette
Very well maintained and equipped, more than enough room and equipment for 8 people. Really comfortable beds and lovely bathrooms with plenty of hot water. Everywhere sparklingly clean. Nice and warm with the ability to control the heat yourself. Huge kitchen/diner, 2 separate lounges and 4 beautifully decorated bedrooms each with a bathroom. Lots of unrestricted parking at the back of the property (property can be accessed from front or back), no noise or smells from the restaurant below. Lots of cafes, bakeries and eateries within a few minutes walk. Would not hesitate to stay here again the pictures do not do it justice.
