Upstairs, you will find three immaculate, neutrally styled bedrooms, offering plenty of light, space and storage, as well as stunning wooden beams, comprising a super-king-size that can be turned into a twin on request and two double bedrooms, all served by a contemporary family bathroom. Outside, you will find off-road parking and a stunning enclosed garden, lined by apple trees, with a patio and furniture, where you can sit back and enjoy a glass of wine in your peaceful setting, while steps up take you onto the large lawn. There are two outbuildings; one for log storage and the other has a fridge and freezer plus a hanging rail for wet clothes, should you want to do any washing during your stay, while the surrounding field often has friendly Shetland Ponies grazing in it.
