There are three attractive bedrooms one double, one twin and one single, a spacious bathroom with a roll-top bath plus a separate shower room with WC.

The whole property is furnished with carefully selected pieces, mainly old pine and antiques. It is truly a home from home.

The farmhouse is set in an enclosed courtyard, which is a real suntrap. It also provides plenty of space for parking. There is a garden in front of the property with a picnic bench and bbq area. You can also enjoy shared use of the large tree lined lawn that is ideal for games and more picnics!

There are wonderful beaches 5 minutes away in either direction, and there is also a golf course only 5 minutes away.
