Expansive attractive home great location
We took three generations of family and spouses spread across 5 bedrooms and two floors for a milestone birthday celebration. Our small children delighted in the orchard, trampoline, gardens and toys and books provided. Grown ups enjoyed the many rooms and outdoor spaces with aspect to the beautiful garden and, of course, the river. The house is very well fitted out and comfortable. A second bike would be a useful addition so a couple could ride along the river.
