This charming cave house has been beautifully renovated and maintained over the last 7 years and is presented in “walk-in” condition for new owners.
The benefits of a cave house are many and varied and this lovely version offers a great deal of flexibility in terms of how the house is used in the future.
If you think that living in a cave house you might feel like a hermit, you couldn’t be further from the truth – light and bright accommodation and great outside space make this house a delight to enjoy all year round.
Cave accommodation offers a steady ambient temperature all year round – cool during the heat of the summer months and maintains a comfortable temperature even in the coldest months of the year.
