* Ceiling beams are low downstairs.
* The two bedrooms interconnect - you walk through the twin to the king bedroom (please see the floorplan).
* Our stairs are steep and open into the twin bedroom - this is not suitable for toddlers nor anyone who is unsteady on their feet (please see photos).

* Well behaved dogs are very welcome, but please not on the beds and other furniture. Those with sensitivities please note we are a dog friendly property.
