Also some outdoor games, bats, balls, buckets and spades. There is an additional fridge in the utility room. The garden is very large (200ft long) with a patio with chairs and table by the house and two patios further down the garden which get the evening sun. There is further seating and hammock in the garden. We are happy for children to stay but the garden does have steep drops in parts, the stone can be slippery when wet, we just want you to know that care needs to be taken and young children will need supervision . It may also be a challenge for those with mobility issues. The sides of the garden do not have lockable gates on them. It is a lovely garden with sub tropical plants, vegetable beds, fruit bushes and trees. Hopefully you can partake of the fruit and veg if the time is right! The garden also has a rustic chalet for your use with seating, heater etc for a summer evening drink. The hammock is in here and additional cushions/blankets are stored in a box outside the chalet. Neither house nor garden have child safety features so you will need to supervise children at all times. It is also not suitable for people with mobility issues as the house is old with steps and the garden uneven. There is a large storage shed in the garden which will be locked. We have a small annex in the garden which is sometimes used by ourselves when we have people staying in the house. This means we are on hand to help if need be but keep a low profile! We access the annex by the side of the house which is not used by guests. We are happy to consider the booking of the house and annex by guests please see the separate listing here: airbnb.com/h/franshideaway Dogs are not accepted at any time under any circumstances! Guest access Guests can access the whole house. The garage is locked and there is a large shed at the bottom of the garden that is also not accessible to guests. We may be staying in the annex in the garden so are on hand if you need anything but leave you to the whole house and garden. Other things to note Please do not use the wood burner in the outside shed. It has been deemed unsafe. Apologies, we need to replace it. Like any old house ours has it's unique features and quirks! We will tell you everything you need to know for your stay prior to your arrival.
