About this home
Downstairs, the cosy sitting room is set around a wood-burning in the old hearth and there’s a second family snug with bean bags and a squashy sofa, ideal for film nights.
The kitchen is a vision of modernity with its big breakfast island to accommodate the bustle of family mealtimes and dining takes place in the conservatory area overlooking the sprawling grounds.
Though grand bedrooms with sleigh beds and lots of space are more manor house than country cottage.
Four of the bedrooms have zip-and-link beds which can be twins or king-size, just let your host know which you prefer.
Two of the bedrooms are bunk rooms with additional trundle beds, suitable for kids
Stepping outside you’ll find a sweeping, manicured lawn and wooden climbing frame for the kids to run free, and patio dining for the whole group courtesy of a charcoal barbecue should the weather allow.
Our favourite part? The wood-fired hot tub hidden between the trees and looking out over the fields and woodland.
Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome for an additional cleaning fee
There is private parking for up to four cars.
