Thoughtful luxury touches elevate your stay throughout: including soft robes & slippers, fluffy towels, high quality bedding, cloud duvets, a high-quality coffee machine, filtered chilled water in the fridge and a curated selection of herbal teas.
Between the main house and the annexe sits the charming Indian stone flagged courtyard, ideal for morning coffee or relaxed evening drinks. From the annexe, step out onto another patio with garden furniture, bbq and fire pit and the property’s beautiful, long private lawned garden, completely secluded and not overlooked, offering a serene space for relaxation. To the front of the property, open fields stretch out, and you may even catch a glimpse of the nearby Leeds and Liverpool Canal, which has direct access just a two-minute walk away offering many lovely walking routes and multiple food serving pubs.
