In summer, you can try your hand at painting or drawing a view across one of the fields, and in winter you can curl up in front of the fire and read a new book, or perhaps an old favourite. We have a DVD library with over 100 films which guests can request and borrow at no extra charge, and there’s free wi-fi.
