1 bedroom apartment, No. 1 or No. 4 or No. 5
House No. 1 is located at the highest point of the guest house on the right. The panoramic view it offers to the visitor is stunning. House No. 4 is a special place that is a bit reminiscent of a cave, as when it was built, the rocks were not blown up but were built into the walls and became an integral part of them. House No. 5 is also suitable for a family with a small child or baby because there are not many stairs outside and the living room with the bedroom is almost on the same level.
