When we arrived the whole house was very cold because everything is quarry stone. It took a day for the walls to get reasonably warm; we just got cold weather. There is a pellet heater in the hallway. Otherwise, the house is very tastefully furnished down to the last detail with everything you need and you can feel very comfortable. The garden and the terrace are great for sitting out, but you can hear the traffic noise as the through road is not far away.
