The entire family can relax in two spacious lounges, one with a warming wood burner and another with a TV/DVD. Outside you’ll find a vast garden set to lawn, perfect for relaxing in the sun. The garden isn’t entirely enclosed, so be sure to keep a close eye on your four-legged friends, and watch out for local deer who often pop by.
