About this property

Snuggle close together on the stylish grey sofas and watch as flames flicker within the electric fire and enjoy all of your favourite shows on the TV. Escape the excitement as you soak in the spacious tub that decorated the bathroom, or delight in a long rinse under the overhead shower.
