Description from owner

Description

Tarante is a stunning ground floor apartment that enjoys a half-acre of beautiful garden set beside the River Arun. French doors onto the deck from both the living room and bedroom give a wonderful impression of space, and bring the garden right into the apartment. 400 sq.ft. Tarante is ideal for a couple, but can accommodate a family of 4.

The apartment is attractively decorated with original artwork. In the living-room there is a leather sofa-bed, and dining for 4. TV/DVD with Freeview channels and a selection of board games. The kitchen is small but fully equipped with washing machine, microwave, fridge, double oven and hob.

“Arundel Stay”

Reviewed 23 Apr 2019

Lovely little apartment, in beautiful grounds in a fantastic location. The castle is in view from outside the property and only takes a few minutes to walk to. We visited with our 10 month old baby and the owner kindly provided everything we needed, including a lovely box of toys - so very kind. Lovely place to stay if visiting Arundel.

“Beautiful apartment - perfect location”

Reviewed 30 Sep 2018

We have just returned from a lovely stay at Portreeves. The apartment is modern and spotlessly clean. It has all the home-comforts you could possibly need. The bed was really comfortable and it was lovely to look out onto the garden first thing in the morning whilst having a nice cup of tea!! Arundel centre is an easy 5 minute walk away. A very relaxing holiday apartment with lovely owners and we would thoroughly recommend it to anyone visiting Arundel.
