A small step and wood banister divides the dining area from the sitting area with its big feature fireplace. Windows on one side are exterior and on the other form the upper parts of the double doors to the long veranda with its wood burning stove. The kitchen has a traditional bread oven as well as bottled gas cooking. The ground floor also has the boiler room, which doubles as a workshop and laundry room. Upstairs, along a tiled landing are five good-sized double bedrooms – four of which have showers en suite.
