The kitchen is airy and bright and will have everything you need for your stay, including possibly a French-themed gift from the owners .
Relaxing, dining and socialising is well catered for. The dining room is spacious and uncluttered with a table for six. The living room, at the front of the house, has snug little sofas and chairs for chatting with a tea or resting after a walk in the North Wessex Downs. The wood burning stove will provide heat and ambiance to allow conversation to continue into the night. Downstairs, the cellar has been converted into a snug room with a large Smart TV.
Outside, there’s a patio with a table and chairs for drinks in the sun. The garden is well sized and pleasant with a mix of established trees and new plants. If the sun’s shining, it’s a good place to sit and relax.
