Keep on top of laundry with the handy washing machine that sits within the porch, before freshening up with a quick rinse in the ground-floor shower room. Discover two well-appointed twin bedrooms resting on the ground floor, one of which can be found benefitting from its very own en-suite shower room offering accessible accommodation for guests with limited mobility. Venture up to the first floor and be greeted by a further three bedrooms consisting of an additional twin, a family room with both a king-size and a single bed, and a spacious king-size with an en-suite bathroom.
