Nestled in a scenic valley near Ardara, this beautifully modernized 200-year-old rural cottage blends historic charm with contemporary comfort. The classic stone façade is a contrast to modern amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen and spacious living areas. Three tastefully decorated bedrooms and a private garden make it family-friendly. Enjoy stunning valley views and easy access to Ardara's vibrant culture, local shops, and outdoor adventures. Ideal for a memorable, relaxing getaway.
