You have the feel of the 17th century, but all the upgrades and comfort of home. Ideal for those seeking relaxation and outdoor activities.
The large heated swimming pool area is completely secluded and for your sole use. It is fenced, gated and with a high hedge all around for complete privacy, also gives complete peace of mind for the safety and security of children. There are roman steps into the pool and a diving board at the other end. The area has ample comfy sun-loungers with cushions, parasols and an oak pavilion to relax inside when you want to escape from the heat of the day!
The mature gardens inside the pool area have mature trees and bushes.
Within the garden, amongst the orchard there are swings, an enclosed trampoline, table tennis table and a play house to keep the children entertained and occupied for many hours so that you too can relax and unwind!
4 large bedrooms. Master bedroom with king-size bed has its own en-suite shower room, double wardrobes, dressing table and a fabulous view of the valley and of the raised terrace below! A further double bedroom with a french relaxed feel about it over looks the orchard. There are 2 large bright twin bedrooms with open views of the gardens and the beauty beyond. A separate shower room upstairs and there is a downstairs bathroom with a corner bath and double wash basins.
This delightful kitchen feels like home from home with a large table seating 8 and has all the modern appliances, including a large electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, toaster, fridge, coffee machine etc, and the French doors open out onto the breakfast terrace with an undercover seating area.
There is a separate cool laundry room which has a washing machine, fridge freezer, iron and board and ample shelf storage.
The very large, bright living area has a beautiful antique table and chairs, seating 8 comfortably, a piano, and a dresser. There is also an inglenook fireplace, with a widescreen tv, dvd player and selection of dvd's, 2 sofas and 2 armchairs. This leads out onto the raised terrace which looks out over the open fields, where the deer come and graze happily away! The night skies are completely mesmerizing! They are filled with so many stars, that when you can gaze up at them you can watch the satellites cruise across the skies, all whilst under the flow of the milky way!!
The middle terrace has a BBQ and Pizza oven, large table and chairs so you can all chat together whilst waiting for lunch and dinner to be cooked!
Set in 80 acres of secluded meadow and woodland, a safe and peaceful environment with large mature gardens surrounding the property on all sides with fantastic views over-looking the countryside. Lots of walks in the cool and private peaceful woods.
Shaded private terraces for outside dining or curling up with a good book in the hammock, listening to the tree crickets whilst you slowly doze off for a siesta. There is something for everyone to enjoy here with many guests returning year after year!
