The Main House
This comprises 100 square metres of living space on two levels. There is also a large basement beneath that houses the diesel-fired boiler and exchange tanks for the central heating system and hot water (hot water can also be provided by solar panels on the annexe roof during sunny weather). There is also plenty of space here to store garden tools etc and to stow away your garden furniture in the winter months.

Upstairs the front door opens into a small hall area with a wardrobe for coats etc. Beyond, there is the large open-plan living, dining and kitchen area with a wood-burning stove as an option to the central heating. Also leading off the hall is an upstairs bathroom with wc, washbasin, large shower and plumbing for a washing machine.
 
 
  Double doors lead from the living area to a large terrace with panoramic views over the bay below and to the mountains above and behind. The terrace has a sloping roof that provides ample shade through much of the day.
 
  A marbled staircase leads from the hall to the lower level which comprises 2 good-sized bedrooms and a second bathroom with bath, washbasin and wc. Each of the rooms has fitted wardrobes for clothing and storage.
 
 
 
Guest accommodation/annexe
The guest lodge is a separate building with twin beds. It provides an additional 28 square metres of living space. It has its own bathroom with shower, toilet and sink, together with wardrobe and drawers and a kitchen/dining area with sink, cooker, fridge, dining table and chairs. It is designed to provide simple, comfortable accommodation for 1 or 2 people.
 
  The door to the lodge opens out onto the large terrace above the pool, which is shared with the main house, and part of which is covered to provide shade. Being 500m above sea level, in the hot summer months we have a slightly cooler breeze, so that air-conditioning is not needed. A fan is provided in the lodge, together with mosquito nets for the summer months when a few mosquitoes are around at night. For the winter months, the lodge is equipped with central heating.
