Upstairs, there are three light, airy bedrooms: the master king-size and twin room both have exposed beams in vaulted ceilings, and there’s an additional double which provides comfortable accommodation and captures the morning sunshine on fine days. The accommodation is rounded off with a ground-floor shower room and a stylish first-floor bathroom with metro brick tiling. The gardens are fully enclosed by fencing and hedges. Featuring lawns with plenty of space for your four-legged pal to exercise, the gardens offer a covered well, the old smokehouse and patios perfect for enjoying a BBQ on a sunny afternoon.
