Monte Pedrosu Apt 1, Sardinia

Cala Girgolu, a picture postcard arc of white sand edging a turquoise sea is just 1.5 Kms from our Monte Pedrosu Apts and when we were there in September, was rather quaintly serviced by a small boat which stopped by intermittently, serving gelato (ice cream), cold drinks and coffees from its deck and undoubtedly calling in it the variety of pretty coves along the coastline.

These, almost reclusive apartments are appealingly set around an attractive free form pool in pretty cloistered gardens complete with barbecue and pizza oven hidden away amongst its foliage and quietly tended by the owners who live in a ground floor apartment and speak no English. However, armed with a phrase book and sense of humour, we are sure you will soon be on more than nodding acquaintance, as they are looking forward to welcoming their guests in typically unobtrusive Sardinian way. The ten apartments are each a little different in layout but all are modern and bright with a double and twin bedroom, a smart shower room and open plan, well equipped kitchen/living area. The covered balconies, or garden terraces of the ground floor apartments provide a popular extension to the living area and they all have either sea or garden views.

Prettily pastel lemon tinted apartments, they sit on a sweep of wooded headland that stretches from the village of Monte Pedrosu out towards rocky Capo Coda Cavallo off which lie the islands of Molarotto and distinctively shaped Isola Tavolara, once a kingdom in its own right. Here and there, similar terracotta roofs of select privately owned apartments and grand villas spread out across the cape, attractively punctuating the landscape.

The village of Monte Pedrosu is just 600m away, within a 15mins stroll and conveniently offers a choice of two trattorias, as well as a cafe, a butcher and small supermarket but if you like to be spoilt for choice, then you won't be disappointed by the small town of San Teodore, just a 10 mins drive with an array of shops and restaurants and also coincidentally blessed with a vast gently shelving white sand beach that would compete on equal terms with some of the best of the Caribbean.

There are three washing machines in the grounds for the use of guests.

We consider car hire useful, but please bear in mind that if you intend arriving by means of bus from Olbia Airport (4 per day) you will need to carry your luggage the last 600ms - taxis are few and far between in Sardinia

Apt 1 - The Pool Apartment - Sleeps 5

This poolside apartment will be first choice for those who like to spend more time in the pool than out of it or who have children of a likewise disposition. The covered terrace offers a retreat from the sun and is well placed for keeping a watchful eye on budding cross channel swimmers. Double French doors from the terrace open into the living area, nicely furnished with table and chairs and a sofa bed, which could be useful should you wish to take a 5th person. The kitchen area is well equipped with a full oven and fridge/freezer fitted amongst the tidy run of cupboards. A double bedroom and twin bedroom share a fully tiled shower room.

NB Those with very young children may find this apartment a little too convenient for the pool also, two sides of the terrace have an unprotected drop of approx 75cms.

There are three washing machines in the grounds for the use of guests.
