About this place
A bright apartment near the seafront, reached by a lift from the accessible parking. It suits guests who want a step-free stay in town with buses and the ferry close by. We measured the lift and the route in person. The lift is the only way up, so we have set out exactly what happens if it is out of service.

Good to know
We list the barriers as carefully as the features. Read these before you request a stay.
- The lift is the only step-free way to the apartment. If it fails, we will move you to a ground-floor alternative or refund the stay. This is written into the booking terms.
- The balcony has a 30mm upstand at the door, so it is not wheel-in from the living room.
- Town-centre location means some evening noise from the street below at weekends.
