Would be great if the bedside lamps could have brighter bulbs. Having said that, the accommodation was first class, we hope to return. The standard of fixtures and fittings were very high and we had everything we needed. Thank you very much.

With both the beach, shops and eateries all within walking distance albeit uphill to some. We thoroughly enjoyed the week,despite some inclement weather. No complaints!

Our only minor issues were the wash basin and bathroom plugs wouldnât stay down which presumably hadnât been reported by the previous visitors. We have no doubt had these been mentioned by previous visitors this would have been rectified fairly quickly. The water was hot in morning but just warm in the evening despite being apparently on all the time. It was either a short walk down to the beach or up the hill to the shops so in a convenient location. Overall we enjoyed our stay in a nice new apartment.
