For days when it’s possible to host dinner parties in a non-socially distant manner, there’s a separate dining room with space to seat at least six. 

One of the four bedrooms is on the ground floor, with an en suite bathroom and walk-in shower here. An eye-catching feature, all of the interior doors are solid wood sliding barn doors.
