Interior layout

The moment you enter this third floor holiday apartment, you’ll be greeted by an inviting hallway that serves as the flat’s central hub, connecting the comfortable bedrooms, the spacious living room, a modern kitchen and the sleek bathroom.

Step into the spacious living room, where an inviting sofa and two soft arm chairs offer the perfect spot to unwind.  Large sash windows at the front of the room flood the space with natural light, highlighting the beautiful wooden floors. In the evenings, you can bask in the warm, welcoming atmosphere created by the soft lighting and settle in to watch your favourite shows on the Smart TV. A charming wooden coffee table serves as a centrepiece, perfect for gathering around with a drink or a good book.

Drift off to sleep in the tranquility of the master bedroom. The plush double bed, with its contemporary padded headboard, set against a calming turquoise wall, promises a restful night. Wake up gently to the soft sunlight filtering through the sash window, creating a peaceful start to your day. The master bedroom also has its own water closet. Through in the other bedroom, another comfortable double bed presents itself. A similar interior design palette of tranquil blues and soft neutrals creates a soothing atmosphere, while natural light streams in, making it a perfect spot for unwinding after a long day. These serene spaces are designed for with comfort and relaxation in mind.

Feeling peckish? The compact kitchen is ready for you. It’s fully equipped with all the essential cookware, crockery, and appliances you’ll need to whip up delicious meals. With an induction cooktop, oven, toaster, kettle, and a fridge/freezer, you can effortlessly make anything from a quick breakfast to a three-course dinner.

Pamper yourself at the end of a long day with a soak in the sleek and modern bathroom. A deep bathtub, featuring both a handheld and overhead shower, invites you to wash away your worries and unwind completely.

Towels and linen are supplied and a high chair and travel cot are available by request.
