Once inside you'll head straight through to the contemporary kitchen and dining room, a sociable space to enjoy a lazy breakfast or romantic evening meal. This room boasts electric oven, fridge/freezer, microwave and a washing machine, as well as lovely views out to the rear landscape. Next door, a spacious living room is a lovely space to relax, and French doors open out onto the garden, letting fresh air breeze through.

The bedroom is a bright and airy double with a comfy bed, and in a separate room, you'll find a bathroom with WC and shower. Travel through the property via original farmhouse doors and past oak beams, for a truly authentic countryside experience. Enjoy a wonderfully peaceful surrounding area, outside you'll find a spacious garden set to lawn with four steps leading up and a gravel driveway to park a car.
