There is a large dining table for you to socialise and enjoy a homecooked meal around. It is a space I particularly enjoy after a day of being out and about - great for unwinding together!

Off from the kitchen, there is a laundry/utility space with a washing machine and dryer. Ideal if you have a spot of washing that needs doing.

Upstairs you can enjoy a restful night sleep in the master bedroom. This features a double bedroom and for storage, a large chest of drawers and a wardrobe. The master bedroom is also where you find the best view!
