Step inside into the entrance hallway, where you will find a cupboard housing an iron and ironing board, as well as hooks to hang your coats. Discover the open-plan living space, presented in light grey and a bright white with two sets of bi-fold doors leading outside. Unwind on the plush sofas in front of the gas flame-effect fire, with a TV above to enjoy movie marathons together. Stepping through the home, locate the marvellous kitchen area, with its marble work tops, double electric oven and gas hobs to rustle up tasty meals.

Awaken with a rinse in the en-suite shower room or opt for a soak amongst the bubbles in the bathroom. Take advantage of your rural setting and enjoy a quaint stroll around Pine Lake, where you can also fish and be sure to try-out the on-site facilities, including a swimming pool, gym, and café. Treat the family to a swing at Crazy Golf @ Greenlands and the little ones will be thrilled with a ride on Cinderbarrow Miniature Railway.
