Great apartment with amazing view. Just couple of points to note: the garden space in front of the apartment looking out at the view is not completely private as there seems to be access for others and can find people walking through occasionally. Also can hear footsteps from the property above particularly if there are children running around. However this is a great and spacious apartment which is very comfortable. It is also in a good location with access to the marina and number of restaurants and cafes. We were disappointed with the Town centre though as seems it has been neglected and was dirty.
