Look forward to relaxing on the sofa with your loved ones around and tuning into the TV to truly unwind, before heading to bed. The interior is completed by two brightly-decorated bedrooms, comprising of a double and a twin, each complete with a refreshing colour palette, as well as ample storage and the feature fire place within the double bedroom, which adds charm.
