A stunning property in a great location with loads of space to spread out and relax, just a short walk to the sea and sea pool (down quite a steep hill). If elderly or infirm maybe not the property for you as lots of stairs, and the living space at the top. We enjoyed the kitchen and couldn't of asked for anymore equipment it was well stocked.
