From the owner

Welcome to our family house. We've been working hard to create a stylish, welcoming house for guests that wish to relax with friends & family either for a weekend break or a longer holiday. It's a spacious, Victorian, detached house where we live in between our guest visits. Our love of interiors has led us to bring this charming house into the 21st century whilst preserving the original Victorian features - ceiling roses, cornicing, original doors, tall ceilings, wooden floors and adding modern conveniences such as open plan space, light, limestone flooring and modern appliances into the kitchen and bathrooms.

A warm and stylish interior helps you relax and enjoy your stay in comfort.

Large beds with fresh, crisp bedlinen invite you to slumber and lighting at the touch of a button creates a soothing atmosphere. Sheepskin rugs snuggle your toes as you climb in/out of bed.

In the kitchen an American style fridge freezer with fresh water & ice dispenser provides lots of space for refreshments. Whilst the stone island unit invites you to gather around chatting or prepping your next delicious meal. It also has a handy round prep sink.

Underfloor heating extends through the kitchen, dining, garden room and in the ensuite to Bedroom 1 adding a little luxury for your feet.

Bi-fold doors lead you onto the terrace & private garden where there is a charcoal BBQ, dining table & chairs and outdoor relaxed seating to enjoy al fresco meals.

A large modern wood burning stove in both the garden room and sitting room add wonderful ambience for when it's a cool evening.

There are 3 bright and welcoming bathrooms and a seperate WC on ground floor.

The private courtyard garden at the rear provides a mediterranean vibe space to relax whilst also providing a lovely airy feel to the house as gorgeous light filters through.

Dimmable lights throughout the house create just the ambience you wish.

Easy to use window shutters on original large, sash windows operate throughout the house for creating cosy nights in.

There are 2 Freeview TV's for viewing choice, a 6ft pool table in the snug and a Yamaha keyboard for anyone who enjoys playing some tunes. There are fun board games and card games too.

The house is south facing so lots of lovely natural light bounces around throughout the day.
