Property Description
The Bed and Breakfast building:
Bed & Breakfast \"Merida Santiago\" is partly an old construction. It\'s front construction is under supervision of the national inheritage association. When we were reconstructing the building we choose only for the best local materials. The columns are for example made from macedonia stone as well as the toptables and sinks in the bathrooms. The building has a large diningroom/reception and big semi open roof covered breakfast/bar area. Offcourse it\'s also possible to have breakfast in the open sky, for example in our front garden with it\'s fountain. There is the availability of a large filtered pool (5m x 8m) which is deep enough to have a real swim (1.6m - 1.90m). The construction is in colonial style which means high ceilings, arches with colums, traditional colours. The heigh ceiling regulate a better climate in the rooms. Futher we have many doors and windows to have a good ventilation and enough daylight if you want.... The atmosphere is open and the building will bring you in holiday mood as soon as you enter the front door!
