The perfect place for al-fresco dining.
Upstairs another, smaller summer kitchen, large bedroom with double bed. The joining sitting room (open fireplace, double sofa bed) with its stunning loft ceiling is unique of his kind. Some steps up to the smart bathroom with shower/WC. Also from these rooms beautiful views.
