The bedroom also features antique chests of drawers for storage, a dressing table and stool, a velvet armchair in a reading nook, and a stunning, free standing roll top bath positioned to enjoy the wonderful countryside views and the stars through the three enormous roof windows. These make the bedroom light filled and airy, but blackout blinds will ensure cosiness and good sleep. In support of local business owners, you will find toiletries, welcome goodies and handicrafts featured within in the property.
