SORRY NO HEN/STAG GROUPS GROUND FLOOR: It is exciting to view what awaits behind the front door when first entering the property. The lodge, built in traditional Cotswold cream stone, was designed by an award-winning architect, and provides that quintessential Cotswold cottage vibe, but with a modern design twist. On the ground floor you will find 2 of the 3 bedrooms. The double bedroom with king-size bed, a wall mounted Smart TV, double wardrobes, and an adjacent family shower room in the hallway - the bedroom is light and airy due to the wall of glass on one side, with direct access to the large ground floor decking area through the floor to ceiling glazed doors. Also with private direct access to the same terrace is the triple bunkbed room next door. A room that affords flexibility for families, a full-size double bed and single above can also be twinned with a Z-bed – enabling up to 4 x guests. A wall mounted TV, double wardrobe and en-suite with bathtub complete this room. FIRST FLOOR: The vaulted double height ceiling dominates the first floor, and your eyes are immediately drawn to the huge apex roof ‘wall of glass’ that offers picturesque west facing views of the maturing Howells Mere Lake. The first floor balcony provides an alfresco dining experience and a place to relax whilst enjoying time spent together with family and/or friends. The design of the balcony directly off the living area through the full sliding double glazed doors, allows the entertainment space to be extended, creating a flowing space that is the centre of the home. The lounge has a corner sofa, large Smart TV, and Eames style designed armchair with footstool, focusing on the beautiful Scandinavian and contemporary wood burner – the best place to be! A dining area within the open plan living space and a well-equipped kitchen finish the first floor. SECOND FLOOR: Originally built as a 2 x bedroom home, Pennyroyal has been extended with the addition of a new mezzanine floor in the roof void, which has created a new open plan sleeping area with stunning elevated views over Howells Mere and beyond. With a king-size bed and a further TV, the room also has a small water closest with toilet and basin. With floor space to accommodate the Z-bed also, this bedroom also provides families with a degree of flexibility. NB the mezzanine bedroom is open to the lounge below. N.B. a Z bed is also available and can fit in Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 3. This bed is not suitable for an adult – please let us know if you require this additional bed.
