Upstairs, three spacious double bedrooms enjoy far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside, creating a calm and inspiring atmosphere. The main bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite bathroom, while the luxurious family bathroom has also been thoughtfully updated with contemporary fittings and finishes.
