OWNER INSIGHT

"I’ve been at Spa Villa since the apartments were first built. I was immediately attracted by the peace and quiet here combined with the easy proximately to the harbour and the shops at Wellswood. Whilst writing this I have my patio doors open and am listening to the blackbirds and thrushes singing in the garden. It is lovely to have my own front door with parking for two cars just in front. I feel totally private as no one walks past my apartment , but at the same time I am blessed with lovely neighbours and feel totally secure. The large south facing patio is a big bonus. It more than compensates for not having my own garden. There is plenty of room to entertain here and to enjoy the sun and the birdsong. I am only leaving this light and airy apartment because I’m moving in with my partner and we feel it is better to start from scratch."
