With ample seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner, this is an ideal space for everyone to unwind in. The lounge also has a handy sofa bed for one additional guest (available on request). Heading through an opening in the wall, you’ll find the elegantly presented dining room is perfect for enjoying a family get-together, and leads along to a sleek, fully equipped kitchen with plenty of storage space. Beside the staircase leading to the first floor is a stylishly arranged bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Doors from the kitchen lead to the enclosed wraparound garden, with a lawn, patio, and a charming vine-covered seating area perfect for dining alfresco on a sunny afternoon, alongside a delightful summer house.
