2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment.
A stunning, new development, located just above the lakeside village of Colonno, a traditional fishing village with narrow alley ways hiding traditional dwellings and the occasional hidden courtyard – a must to explore on foot. There is a pathway leading down directly into the village from just below the property which may be able to be viewed online on sites like www.hpw.com/cary. The village has a small supermarket, a bakery, post office, a couple of bars and one of the best fish restaurants in the area, Trattoria Chegal (known only to the locals).
