Sliding doors open to the private backyard, where an outdoor dining setting surrounded by established gardens invites relaxed alfresco lunches and balmy evenings.
Accommodation is arranged across two levels, with a mix of enclosed and open-plan sleeping spaces. Downstairs, two fully enclosed bedrooms offer privacy: one with a king bed, the other with two singles. Upstairs, an open-plan loft-style bedroom with a king bed and ensuite flows seamlessly into the upper living area, creating a bright, airy retreat with a relaxed coastal feel. The ensuite features a bathtub and separate shower, while the main bathroom offers a walk-in shower, providing everything you need to refresh after a day at the beach or exploring the region.
Air conditioning keeps the villa comfortable throughout the seasons, while on-site parking makes arriving and exploring the South West effortless.

Really nice property for 4 adults and a small child. Kitchen was an adequate size for a holiday let. We really enjoyed the upstairs Lounge area and the open terrace to look out at the garden and trees.
