It is full of character with exposed stone walls, a wealth of beams, high ceiling, and a minstrels’ gallery overlooking the spacious living area. There is also a grand piano to practise on! The ground floor bedroom leads off the living room and has patio doors with access to the Italian style garden with benches.

A wrought iron spiral staircase leads up to the twin room in the gallery, and through to the en-suite double bedroom.
