The Fisherman’s Loft House

This substantial country house has the proportions and character of a period family residence, with rooms arranged across multiple floors to create distinct spaces for different moods. Eight bedrooms and four bathrooms accommodate up to 16 guests, each with their own corner of the property. The layout gives everyone room to spread out—there's a drawing room with a piano, a library, separate dining and breakfast areas, and a television room alongside a kitchen equipped with both an AGA and electric oven for serious cooking.

Outside, mature trees and established gardens provide the setting; an Italian-style courtyard adjoins the kitchen with seating, a log burner and a fountain. Electricity, bed linen and towels are included. The house is rural and sits within a mile of a pub. No smoking indoors. Large group bookings and multi-generational gatherings are the obvious fit here, whether for a week's reunion or a celebration that needs real space and flexibility.
