It really is the stuff of fairy tales with secret gardens, woodland areas and even a moat!The house itself also has its own private enclosed garden, so is safe for children and pets to run around in, allowing the grown-ups plenty of time to relax alfresco with a drink and nibbles; what more can you ask for?
The property is just as impressive on the inside having been lovingly converted to offer all the mod cons any discerning visitor would expect, whilst retaining original features such as exposed beams, traditional cottage windows and wood panelling.The open-plan living area is really spacious and bright and airy with a generous seating area and open fire welcoming guests to take a seat and start their holiday as they mean to go on, by chilling out and relaxing.
The kitchen is fully fitted with everything needed to create delicious food for the whole holiday party and the attractive rustic dining table and chairs are in the ideal position to make the most of the opportunity to socialise together while enjoying good food and company.
If the weather is warm enough, then step out into the courtyard garden and enjoy a drink outside while the children can have a run around and (hopefully!) tire themselves out.When it’s time for bed, guests can choose from two wonderfully appointed king-size bedrooms and a cool children’s bunk bed; all offer calming spaces to rest your weary heads.
