Stayed here last June 2011, We had booked a cheap break away to spain through Thomas Cook and we paid something like 200 quid each flight and accomodation! The apartment was clean and tidy, very dated though and kitchen was ok but or self catering you dont get alot of cutlery and plates, but we were just a couple. The... More

Somewhere to crash @... More
