Moving through the hall, you will come to the second bedroom which links the two sides of the house and is an elegant room with a king-size bed where you can relax and get lost in the pages of a compelling novel from the selection of books on offer. Onwards through the property you will come to the staircase that leads down to the kitchen, which leads you to third bedroom overlooking the bustling village and contains a digital radio where you can listen to some relaxing music from the comfort of your double bed. A further staircase from this hallway guides you up to the second-floor where you will find the stylish bathroom situated, with a freestanding oval bath.
