A luxurious upstairs bedroom suite, together with a second bedroom and bathroom, completes this wing.
The adjoining accommodation sits alongside the main space yet is fully capable of operating independently. It includes its own entrance hall, stylish kitchen, utility room and reception room with French doors opening to the garden, along with two en suite bedrooms and an additional bedroom or study.
