  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    I offer a separate 100 square metre dependance with a kitchen, a sitting room, a bedroom and a bath room they could use during their time here. It is part of the old stone house but has an independent entrance so there is a great amount of discretion. The apartment has been redone last year so everything is perfectly working and the decoration is lovely.
