The Courtyard Apartments
The apartment was spotless, everything was as planned, and a very late check-in was arranged at the last minute due to ferry delays. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly.

St Angela’s Lakeside Aparthotel
Bit of a trek from car park to the rooms, even using the lift need to carry luggage or groceries up stairs. Room doors are very heavy and 7 year old couldn't open them himself. Otherwise accommodation was comfortable and clean, with spectacular views.
