The ten boutique style bedrooms have been individually decorated and carefully styled, featuring striking wallpapers, plush cushions and luxurious bedding throughout.

Most bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements and can be made up as twins or doubles, with some rooms also providing bunk beds for children, making the property particularly well suited to family groups. Three bedrooms are conveniently located on the ground floor.
