There is an underfloor heating system in all areas, the use of which is included in the rental. During most of the year the days are warm enough for t-shirts and light clothing but since the area is mountainous the evenings and early mornings in the cooler months can be chilly and we have found the heating system invaluable. The log burning stove is provided as a cosy luxury, firewood can be purchased locally,please enquire. Opazo Jardin is ideal for two people. Guest access The two holiday rentals are completely independent of each other and have separate entrances and private outdoor seating areas. In addition there is a large garden for all guests to share. Other things to note Walking guides are supplied free of charge. Delicious meals can be cooked for you if we are given 24 hours notice.
