The accommodation is not suitable for children but we've squeezed them in on occasions.

A modern living area is highlighted by a sleek fireplace beneath a wall-mounted television. A circular light fixture hangs above a wooden dining table, surrounded by comfortably cushioned chairs. A window with dark curtains allows soft light to enter, enhancing the space's welcoming design.
