Make Enquiry About The Gables Waterfront Apartment
An absolutely stunning holiday apartment recently refurbished to a very high standard and in the centre of life on the Russell waterfront. The apartment is extremely comfortable, furnished tastefully and equipped with all that is necessary for holiday makers. The icing on the cake is the accessibility to the village, the fantastic fine food restaurant downstairs (The Gables) and the stunning views from the windows overlooking the waterfront. We enjoyed our stay at this venue and look forward to our next visit when we will stay even longer! Many thanks to the Proprietors who made us feel very welcome during our stay.
