While away pleasant evenings in here, chatting, reading your books or watching the Smart TV. The dining room, with its long wooden table and green garden views, also has French doors that can be pulled back on warm days. From here, wander into the adjoining large kitchen, where you can still see an old range oven fitted into an inglenook but you have two electric cookers for preparing hearty meals for your group. The kitchen also features a large central island, with a wine fridge. When you are ready to retire for the night, your elegant bedrooms await. These include three opulent super-king-sizes, all with en-suite shower rooms. One also features a free-standing copper bath, where you can soak in steaming bubbles within the bedroom itself. The other two have zip-and-link beds that can be made into twins by advance request. All the bedrooms have Smart TVs to allow you long, lazy mornings in bed.
