Catherine is a fabulous host - she did her best to accommodate us when our plans changed, she was ready and waiting for us to arrive, and ensured we had everything we needed; including a portable cot for our baby, during our stay.
The property would be wonderful in the warmer months - especially with children; it's gated, with room to run around, and we were able to park our car safely off the street.
The apartment is exactly as pictured.
And having the small supermarket, pharmacy and boulangerie literally just across the road was a big plus!
The only downside for us was that the bedroom is situated right next to the living area, with only a screen door in between. This meant that when we put our baby down to sleep in the bedroom, he woke every time we made even the slightest noise!
It wasn't possible to have the cot anywhere else in the apartment as it's entirely open plan, so we had to slot it in at the end of the bed…so wasn't ideal with the little one. It was do-able, but something to keep in mind if you're travelling with a baby!
However, would recommend, we can't fault the experience otherwise!
