After an exciting day exploring the region, the kitchen is amply equipped for you to cook up a feast for your group, with a farmhouse dining set contained within the open plan area. If you'd rather go less formal, take your supper into the spacious sitting room with its beamed ceiling and comfortable sofas. Up the oak staircase to the bedroom accommodation, which consists of a double and two twins.
