Ground Floor
There are a couple of steps up to the stable door which opens directly into the spacious kitchen, wrapping round and a small step down into the living/dining room. Doors from here open onto the staircase, the reading room with shower room beyond, and a front door (not generally in use). Hard flooring runs throughout (quarry tiles in the kitchen, wood in the living/dining room and tiles in the reading room) with rugs to keep you snug.

Kitchen
A light and airy room with skylights has bags of room and character, particularly in the ornamental fireplace and unusual settle seat. The chef is sure to appreciate the Classic 90 Rangemaster with five-burner gas hob, electric fan oven, grill and griddle. All other necessary appliances are housed in the built-in cupboards; under counter fridge, three drawer freezer, dishwasher and washer dryer. There’s also a microwave, Lavazza coffee machine, kettle and four-slice toaster. If you have young children there’s a lovely large area where they can play.

Living/Dining Room
Warm and welcoming, this L shaped room has an extending circular table with six chairs so you can enjoy meals at home.

A beautifully carved blanket box sits between two carver chairs and the bookcases are well stocked with reading material and games.

Reading Room
Originally a bookshop, this wonderfully bright room is ideal for an extra guest with a full-sized day bed which can be made up for you; or simply as an additional room where you can sit with a good book!
