The swim spa fits 14 people - that's enough room for your whole party plus the local sheep if they fancy a dip!

Inside, you'll find a mix of luxury and practicality. The ground floor features an adapted bedroom with rise and recline beds, while upstairs offers three king-size bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities.
