Each bedroom benefits from its own bathroom access, giving guests privacy without compromising shared living space. Upstairs sits a welcoming open-plan living area that draws everyone together.

The lounge is centred around a wood burner, making it a cosy space for evenings in after long walks or relaxed days out. The kitchen and dining area flow easily from the lounge, ideal for family meals, unhurried breakfasts, and nights spent gathered together.
