Each apartment has its own front door, so you can come and go freely as you would in your own home, and we offer 39 one bedroom and 60 two bedroom apartments so that you can live together as a couple.

In your apartment you'll find a stylish kitchen with high quality worktops and units, offering you a level of independence that gives you the freedom to start the day at your own pace, or provide food and drinks to visiting friends and family.

Our apartments come unfurnished to allow you to bring your own favourite pieces of furniture and personal items to make it feel like home. They are all fitted with a wet room and either a balcony or patio so you can enjoy a breath of fresh air or while away the hours in the sunshine.
