Being of a good size this lovely orangery has many uses, from a study/home office for those working from home to a playroom for the children or for laying out food for parties/BBQ’s to enjoy garden dining or recreational pleasures like basketball, football or bouncing on a trampoline. The ceiling allows light to flood in which would be appreciated by those into craftwork or painting.

The extensions to the ground floor have been well thought out offering good gathering / entertaining areas along with the opportunity for peace and solitude after a busy day.
