Description
The house is a terrace house, it is about 5 minutes drive from Batu Ferringhi market, and 30 minutes from hustle and bustle Georgetown. There is a bus stop 2 minutes away from the house to go either areas (Batu Ferringhi and Georgetown). And it is located in a quite area, 2 minutes way away from Miami Bay ( one in Penang!), it is very relaxing place to stay, you can hear birds chirping every morning!
