Floor to ceiling french doors give access to a balcony that shares the same stunning vista. In addition, an en suite shower room accompanies this bedroom. A comfortable double bed is provided by bedroom two, which also boasts an en suite shower room. Bedroom three hosts twin beds, and is served by any of the aforementioned bathrooms. Decorated in subtle grey tones with complimenting quality soft furnishings, these bedrooms invite a restorative deep sleep.
Outside, the exquisite gardens are a considerable asset to this property.
