Further Details

Set within an organic farm, sliding doors give access into the light and bright open plan lounge/kitchen/diner. To the rear of the space is the kitchen, which features an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine.

There is also a ground floor shower room with a walk in shower and WC, and stairs rising to the first floor. Here you will find a king size bedroom with balcony window and a twin bedroom just opposite. There is a separate WC between the two bedrooms.
