The gardens of the cottage are well tended, featuring local flowers and plants, while the extensive lawns provide shaded areas under the trees, from which to sit and enjoy the views. Immediately outside the villa is a large terrace, partly shaded by a pergola. Under the pergola is a table with benches for dining al fresco, while to one side there are some outdoor sofas and armchairs on which to relax.

There is an arched doorway through which you enter the house into the living area, while to the right is a matching arched window with views of the farmhouses and chapels dotted on the rolling hills. This bright room is furnished with a double and triple sofa facing a large fireplace and the TV.

An open doorway leads into the dining room and kitchen. In the centre of this room is a wooden table that comfortably seats 6 people. Along a wall there is a kitchen unit which includes an induction hob and an oven, while in the adjoining pantry/laundry room there is a fridge with separate freezer. Immediately outside the kitchen is a sunny terrace with barbecue and an iron table with six chairs.

Wooden stairs from the kitchen lead up to a mezzanine floor where there is a sitting area with a double sofa and an armchair. Attached to this is a bathroom with bathtub and handheld shower.

From the lounge on the ground floor a short corridor leads to the double bedroom with a warm wooden floor and a triple-door wardrobe. Also off the corridor is a bathroom with shower, opposite which is a room which was formerly a study, and which can be set up as a single bedroom should two single bedrooms be required.

The garden is fully fenced.

1 double bedroom which cannot become a twin room.
There is a room which has a single bed in it, should two separate bedrooms be required. It is not possible to accommodate 3 people.

The large pool is a few steps away from the villa in a wonderful position which enjoys full sun. It is surrounded by a large, paved sun deck which has several sun beds and a few deckchairs shaded by a tree, looking out over the incredible views.

This peaceful area is ideal for relaxing after sightseeing, or just for spending a quiet and tranquil day enjoying the splendour of the countryside and the stunning views that it has to offer. The pool is 10 x 5 metres in size and 1.2 - 1.8 metres deep. It is open from May to September.
