Vendor s Comments:

The apartment is light, spacious and quiet in a beautiful historic terrace. There s plenty of space to entertain inside but friends will love picnics in the amazing private gardens (spanning over 7.5 acres) or, with the tunnel to the beach, you can go to the beach or restaurants at the marina very easily. The location is perfect with everything you need on the doorstep from fresh local produce to a great choice of restaurants or bistro bars. If you want the theatre and the Lanes, it s a 20-25 minute walk either along the promenade or down St James s Street (which is on the Pride route), or a short cab ride.
