The open plan ground floor is furnished in a contemporary style and has a well equipped galley kitchen with electric double oven & 4 ring ceramic hob, fridge/freezer & all the accessories one will need for a week away. This extends to the dining area which in turn opens up into the lounge area, which has a freeview television and DVD player & a wireless iphone/ipod dock for music. A downstairs cloakroom off of the entry completes the downstairs area.

Adjacent to the bedroom is a large, bright, en suite bathroom with full size bath, shower over bath and WC.
Outside a there is a small private patio and garden area, benefiting from its sunny position, which is ideal for relaxing at the end of the day.The communal grounds are open to all guests and lead down to a tranquil area alongside the rippling brook with its magnificent overhanging willow tree. There is allocated parking for guests within the grounds too.
