It's easy to find a quiet space before getting together again for a convivial meal, board game or adventure out.

The magnificent master bedroom is a lovely spacious room with its Superking bed and its own en suite facilities with powerful shower.

The fifth bedroom is sure to become a firm favourite with the younger party members with its two sets of full-size bunk beds catering for up to four. However, if just two children share the bedroom, imagine no fights over who gets the top bunk! The main bathroom is very generously apportioned with both a bath and separate corner powerful shower.
