The apartment is absolutely perfect for a family with older children. Plenty of space for everybody and our boys loved the privacy of their own "nest" above the living area. We arrived late on a wet evening after a 4 hour drive and it was great to walk into such a warm and beautifully decorated apartment. Hilary has thought of everything- we particularly appreciated the provision of an umbrella ! Plenty of books and DVDs to hand when the weather is not so good. The apartment is a 5 minute walk from a lovely beach and the local village is only 5 mins by car. We had a lovely meal in the Tavern on the Friday night. Overall I would highly recommend staying here and would have no hesitation in returning. Thank you very much Hilary!
