"Great location, just a short walk to town (but up a very steep hill) Only thing to be aware of is there’s a small window that doesn’t have a blind so if anyone is sleeping in that room they’ll be woken up with the sun"

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely big apartment with under floor heating and excellent mountain views, set it beautiful gardens. Easy access to local area, lots of shops and restaurants at five mile. Walking along the river nearby was a highlight too, as was the very friendly Oscar the cat. Only slight negative was limited kitchen space, a bit tricky when cooking for 4 people, but overall a great stay and highly recommend."
