Please note the studio is not always available. This listing is for the main house only - contact me if you would like to add the studio to your booking.
Cranbrook is a family home rather than solely a holiday let and due to this any family or group of friends will find our house a home away from home with everything you need in a fabulous location! Please check out our excellent reviews of the main house. As this is our home you will find it particularly well equipped - the kitchen boasts all the usual appliances plus a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, blender, whole fruit juicer and rice cooker. We also have a brand new American fridge freezer with ice machine and filtered water. In the lounge you will find many DVDs, books and games - please feel free to use any of these during your stay. The main accommodation is all on one level with the new studio at ground level - the attic is private for owner's storage.
