Double doors open into the huge Drawing Room, where an intimate ambience can be conjured with low level lighting and big sofas gathered around the large fireplace. Another double door leads into the kitchen, equipped with all modern conveniences and flowing into the adjacent dining room. A breakfast table to the side is perfect for a relaxed breakfast or feeding children, before enjoying a grown-up evening around the large extendable dining table. A big screen Smart TV with DVD player rises from a wall cabinet, allowing for kids to enjoy a film or two while the adult members of your party can relax in the deep sofas next door.
