If you're looking for an bare, minimalist, squeaky clean apartment, this is not for you. This house, built in the 1800's with loads of period features, has been a much loved family home for 15 years and is stuffed full of plants, ornaments and artistic and funky bits and pieces.
Carla warmly welcomed us, with an invitation to make use of whatever was in the fridge and cupboards.
We absolutely loved the top floor outdoor terrace; an airy plant potted green space at treetop height with plentiful shade on the verandah. An additional fridge on this level was a boon for early evening drinks.
The airconditioners worked well in the main living space and in the bedrooms at night.
There was a plentiful supply of crockery and glasses including champagne glasses.
The local restaurant 'Los Damos' - just across the street - was a true find - excellent food and full of locals, not tourists.
