My first time staying here with my wife in November. Had a great time. Its in a nice quiet setting but everything you need is within a ten minute walk (supermarket, bars, restaurants and the beech). We will return again.

A very nice place to stay. The price for our 1 bedroom apartment was brilliant, there could be some maintenance improved, the showerhead was loose and the bed was really squeaky but it is well located and has plenty of facilities. I would stay again.
