The stylish heated outdoor pool is set in a decked terrace close to the house, fenced in for safety. The hot tub is open all year round and the pool is open from May to September.
There’s a big lawn with plenty of room for games or a run around, and a big snail mound – letting children and adults alike survey their domain.
