Owner Location Comment
Whether you're a couple, group of friends or a family, the location of this property couldn't be better. Overlooking the 12th green, the best pool on the complex and the only tennis courts on site you'll find the situation most convenient. Not only that, but the south-westerly aspect guarantees all day sunshine and stunning sunsets.
The bars, restaurants and supermarket are just a short stroll away and access to the main highways are equally convenient whether you're heading for the coast or the city which are both just 20 minutes drive away.
