Description

The perfect place for you to take that well deserved holiday with all the essential facilities you may need to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

This spacious unique holiday home is located in a fascinating area and equipped with great facilities. The property truly creates that home from home feeling and has been specifically designed and uniquely equipped to assist guests with disabilities.
