Lovely place but woefully inadequate heating.
If you stay in the summer you will love this apartment. It is spacious, light, beautifully furnished and has lovely views across the village and the surrounding countryside. There is a shop below with basic essentials and a very friendly pub opposite.
If you stay in the winter months you will not notice all the good things because you will be freezing cold. I spent the first hour after we arrived poring over the manuals to try to get the heaters to warm up. The ones in the bedrooms were okay but the one in the hallway seemed to be faulty. It wouldn’t even work on the manual setting. The storage heater in the large sitting room with windows on three sides was woefully inadequate for the size of room. It sent out a rather pathetic amount of warmth for a few hours and then came up with an error code so I kept on having to reset it. We sat every evening under the fleece throws from the sofa. That heater may provide background heat if it worked properly but there needs to be another heater in the sitting room for winter evenings.
Another gripe was that the TV was switched off at the wall but the TV was so enormous and heavy that it was impossible to move to get to the plug to switch it on. I had to get into a contorted position and poke at the switch with a wooden spoon.
Needless to say, we found it hard to relax in this property but if you stay in the summer and you don’t want to watch TV, you’ll love it.
