About this property
Settled in a pleasant residential area, a stone's throw away from the centre of Southport, rests this delightful two bedroom ground floor apartment, Bella Vita.

An off-road parking space greets you at the foot of this lovely dwelling, making settling in an easy task; dust off your sandy toes and unload your belongings as you step into the entrance hall before making yourself at home in the open-plan living space. Following a day of activity, flick on the Smart TV and snuggle up with your loved ones on the sofa to enjoy a family-favourite. A fantastic selection of amenities await in the fully-functioning kitchen, sure to entice any budding chef to prepare a host of tasty treats, whilst a handy washing machine helps keep your holiday attire fresh and clean! Uncork a bottle of wine and serve the fruits of your labour at the dining table, or make the most of the evening sunshine and venture outdoors to indulge in an alfresco affair in your private courtyard. As the dark skies roll in, retreat indoors to end your action-packed day with a relaxing bubble bath, or if you'd prefer, utilise the overhead shower to relish a quick rinse before bed. Bella Vista offers two well-presented bedrooms, a king-size with a convenient zip/link feature along with a double room benefiting from direct access to the rear courtyard; a solace escape for the adults once the little ones are tucked up in bed. A short walk from your doorstep will bring you to Lord Street, renowned as one of Southport's most celebrated sights, where eye-catching black and white Victorian architecture is adorned with leafy gardens; peruse the boutiques peppered along the canopied boulevard in search of a keepsake to remind you of your fantastic staycation, or visit one of the eateries to treat your loved ones to a bite to eat. Little ones are sure to be kept entertained, with thrills to be had at the amusement park of Southport Pleasureland and aboard the flume at Splash World, whilst the grown ups can take to the waves with a visit to the Southport Watersport Centre or enjoy a moment of peace at one of the many golf courses resting on your doorstep. The town of Formby can be found just south of Southport, where lazy afternoons can be spent lounging on the sand at Formby Beach, or those looking for adventure can explore the pine woodland at Formby Beach Forest. For a change of pace, visit the vibrant city of Liverpool, home of The Beatles; celebrate the lives and music of The Fab Four with a visit to The Beatles Story, treat yourself to a spot of retail therapy at Liverpool ONE, catch a tribute act at the Cavern Club, or watch the Reds at Anfield or the Blues at Goodison Park. With all of this and more, make unforgettable memories with a stay at Bella Vita.

Pat
The most comfortable, clean and well equipped property we have been in. The location is great just close enough to the centre of Southport for a nice walk. The owner Irene is lovely and very welcoming. Almost forgot the welcome pack which even had a treat for Toby the dog. Hope to visit again next year x

Two pubs, a fine take away restaurant (Sahara) and a off licensr Supermarkt are reachable within a few steps. Irene, the owner of the property, is a nice lady, who warmely welcomed us when we arrived. She also made a nice welcome pack with coffee, tea and a chocolate cake. The property is very clean and foreseen with everything you need. If we return to Southport we will definitely stay again at Bella Vita. Thanks a lot for everything, Irene
