Entrance to the main house is via a side gate and path. The house is surrounded to the side and rear by gardens with well established plants offering seclusion and privacy. To the front of the house is a parking area for three cars. The ground floor consists of two living areas and a large kitchen all of which are open plan. This is a very light space,  with large french windows leading out on to a patio area ideal - for barbeques.

Furnishings and wall colours are  quiet and understated, floorings are natural - solid oak and terracotta tiles. The inner sitting room has a wood burning stove, great for any chilly evening - not only the colder months; two sofas, an oak coffee table and a shelving unit housing TV, video and music system. The smaller sitting room contains a futon, two leather armchairs and  a coffee table. There is a large hall area with extensive hanging space for coats and boots, an upright piano, and a small library.

On the first floor, there are five bedrooms, a bathroom (with shower&bath) and a shower room. Two bedrooms are very large with 5ft beds. The other three rooms are part of the original Post Office and, whilst small, have a charming cottage feel; two of them have 4'6" beds, the third has a 3' bed. A travelling cot is available. Four of the rooms have louvered shutters, the fifth has venetian blinds.
