And once your day is done you can jump in the private hot tub for a luxurious bubble-filled soak. Inside, the property skilfully blends old and new, with bay windows, wooden flooring and decorative cornicing combining with elegant decor and contemporary fittings.

The spacious lounge provides a welcome retreat after a busy day of adventures where you can settle down to watch your favourite film. On the ground floor there is a games room perfect for those holiday competitions. The vibrant kitchen and dining area is perfect for entertaining if you’re preparing a homecooked feast.

The large dining table can seat 16 people, so there’s enough room for everyone to eat together. If you prefer to dine out, simply stroll to a local pub. The property offers a good mix of bedrooms to accommodate all ages, with one king-size, one family room with a king-size and a single bed, king size, one double, two twins and a single to choose from.

All come with TVs and have nautical influences. The third-floor rooms even feature porthole windows that will fuel the kids’ imaginations. On a balmy summer’s evening, fire up the BBQ for a family celebration in the back garden, with dancing in the moonlight.
