Proche du centre ville au calme mais accès compliqué pour les 200 derniers mètres, bien suivre le Gps. Grande chambre, décorée avec goût, belle douche italienne.

I'm a retired Aeronautical Engineer. There are four members in my family including myself, my wife, son and daughter. Pretty Villa Holiday Home offers homely accommodation. We are living in upstairs where guest rooms are arranged as a separate unit in downstairs with free private parking and private entrance giving total privacy for the guests. Though guest rooms are arranged as a separate unit, guests are mostly welcome to share homestay experience with the family. We are pretty sure that guests will feel their stay at Pretty Villa like 'Home away from Home'
