The sleek modern gloss kitchen with granite work tops and Fired Earth tiles will have everything you need for whisking up holiday meals for the family to sit and enjoy around the farmhouse table.

The lounge has fabulous views over the fields and hedgerows from the large picture windows and comfy sofas to relax in whilst having a glass of wine after the children have gone to bed. The lounge/diner has a granite inglenook fireplace with Villager gas stove.
