Concrete, Copper and Wood (sleeps 5)

A little different to what we normally do on Airbnb, pre-covid this was our much loved home. I would say our taste is eclectic as we love to mix antique furniture with new, industrial and things Peter has built himself (including a concrete Island to host evenings with family & friends) with key investment pieces. We are local artists enthusiasts as you will see. This apartment is very much about together time, there is a 55-inch tv for movie nights and a collection of board games to suit all.
