The country-style kitchen has plenty of character and has been beautifully equipped to meet all your culinary needs, with the dining area making it a very sociable space. Each bedroom is tastefully appointed, one with an en-suite and one with an additional day bed, allowing flexibility for sleeping arrangements. To the rear, five steps lead up to a private lawned garden which has fine views over fields; a delightful spot in which to relax and soak up the sun.
