Then settle down for the evening to enjoy a movie night in the large sitting room, enveloping the space with the warmth from another newly installed log burning stove in the colder months, or escape with your loved one for an intimate moment together in the welcoming snug and enjoy a fire and a glass of wine.
You are really spoiled for choice when choosing where to relax.
