The versatile accommodation is currently arranged with en-suite bedrooms.

The property is in first rate order with Upvc double glazed windows, gas fired central heating and there have been significant improvements made since the present owners bought the property in 2011. The result is that the new owner can enjoy continued trading for many years to come without significant investment or indeed create a substantial holiday let.
