Lovely spacious apartment with incredible views that change with the changing light conditions. Well equipped with really comfortable bed and very dog friendly with thoughtful additions for the dog. The only downside that needs sorting is the poor TV reception through the WiFi which kept going off every few minutes with the message “technical fault try again later” this was particularly annoying during the England match ! Otherwise a great place to stay.

Lovely, comfortable and well equipped apartment. The layout worked really well for us too. The views from virtually every window are great and there is lots to do around the area. Our dog appreciated the treats left. Great walks from the door too.
