The Space:
The property is set around a lovely courtyard area. The latter is a great space with table and chairs for al fresco dining and BBQ for those who like to cook outdoors. The main part of the villa is accesses via an external set of large stone stairs leading from this courtyard area. Immediately on entering the property, there is a large open plan dining and living area with large table, sofa and grand piano. To the right of this room are 2 doors, one leading to a separate smaller living area and another to a kitchen. This is equipped with 5 ring gas hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher and large fridge and freezer. To the left of the main dining and living area there are two bedrooms, both with ensuite bathroom with shower. Another double bedroom with ensuite is set to the right of the main living space. Back outside but still on the first floor, a stunning door leads through to a separate dependence, with living room, bathroom and bedroom. This is a large space and additional beds can be added into the living area to create a second bedroom if guests prefer. It is an ideal space for a family with children. Downstairs and with entrances leading directly from the courtyard there are 2 other dependences. The first has a living area, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The second has a living area, bedroom and bathroom. Please note that the bedroom is accessed via a narrow spiral staircase though and, as such, would be unsuitable for the young or elderly. The property is simply but tastefully furnished throughout. Staff are on hand nearby if guests need any assistance during their stay and extra services can also be provided on request.
