The house was built in 1714 and is full of period charm. As you enter into the hall, there is plenty of space for your coats and walking boots. Just to the right is the lounge which has a comfy sofa and a wood burner that you can rest beside while you watch a film on the Smart TV after a day exploring the local area. Continue through to the spacious kitchen which is well equipped and rustle up some homecooked food. You'll find an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge with ice compartment and dishwasher. Just through the kitchen is the dining room where you can plan your days ahead and, on a nice day, open the patio doors to let in the fresh air whilst enjoying views across the garden. On the ground floor, there is also a useful shower room with a WC. As you head upstairs, there are two lovely rooms to choose from; the first is a double with an en suite shower room with a shower and WC (please note that due to the style of the property there are sloping ceilings and some reduced head height in this room). The second bedroom is a spacious twin with lovely views to wake up to. Please note that the staircase is steep and may be unsuitable for those with mobility issues.
