🛋️ Gather Together, Unwind Your Way
The open-plan living area is the heart of the home. Stretch out on the green sofa, curl up on the cushioned window seat or enjoy a relaxed evening beside the fireplace. Large windows bring natural light and garden greenery into the space.

There's room to choose your own pace, too. Enjoy a film in the separate TV lounge, find a book in the reading lounge or bring everyone together for a board-game night.

With several sitting areas, spending time together comes with space to yourself.

🛏️ Rest Well, Wake Refreshed
Soft neutral bedding, upholstered headboards and bedside lighting give the bedrooms a calm, welcoming feel.

• Bedroom 1: 1 king bed, with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe
• Bedroom 2: 1 king bed
• Bedroom 3 (bunk room): 1 king single bed and 1 bunk bed with 2 king singles, plus a single trundle
• Bedroom 4: 1 king bed
• Bedroom 5: 1 king bed, with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe

The two ensuite suites give couples or grandparents their own private space. The extra king singles and trundle mean children, or adults who'd rather not share, can each have their own bed.

Four bedrooms have ceiling fans. Bed linens, extra pillows and blankets are provided.

☕ Cook, Share & Savour
Make breakfast at the island, cook a family favourite, fire up the outdoor BBQ or bring home takeaway for an easy night in.

The well-equipped kitchen includes an induction cooktop, two ovens, microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher, while the separate scullery adds preparation space. An espresso machine, coffee, kettle, toaster and blender take care of morning routines.

Cookware, dining essentials and wine glasses are ready for shared meals. Choose the breakfast bar for a casual bite or the 10-seat dining table for a longer catch-up.

🎮 A Little Friendly Competition
Rainy afternoon or quiet evening? There's plenty to enjoy at home.

Play foosball in the games room, choose a PS4 game or gather around Monopoly, Scrabble, Cluedo, Jenga or UNO. Televisions and comfortable sofas give movie lovers their own way to relax.

Wi-Fi and a desk with chair in the bunk room also offer a place to catch up on work between outings.

🛁 Everyday Comfort, Thoughtfully Covered
Both suites have their own ensuite, and the family bathroom serves the other bedrooms. Two separate toilets mean no queues in the morning. Tiled showers and double vanities make getting ready easier, while the freestanding bathtub invites a slower end to the day.

Towels, shampoo, shower gel and hair dryers are provided. Heating, a separate washer and dryer, and an iron help keep short breaks and longer stays comfortable.

🔥 Take the Evening Outdoors
Slide open the doors and settle into the covered outdoor lounge, where cushioned woven seating, a skylight and a fireplace create an inviting setting for conversation.

Share a meal at the outdoor dining table, cook on the BBQ or take your coffee to the smaller bedroom-side deck. The lawn and landscaped gardens give children room to run and play while the adults relax nearby.
