Each room has been designed for entertainment and relaxation, whether that is curling up on a couch reading your favorite book in the lovely library or gathering together over a board game with your family and friends in the generous lounge.

The spacious pool area is set just past the front terrace, with ever more grassy green lawn and garden spaces beyond. There is truly endless space for guests of all ages to enjoy.
