The open-plan living area has two trifold windows which open out onto a huge patio where you can enjoy a BBQ in summer or sit around the fire pit on chillier days. There is a fully equipped kitchen with all you will need to prepare any meal and a dishwasher for quick clean-ups. Enjoy a sit-down meal around the statement wooden table, or gather around the wood burner on colder nights and warm your toes on the heated floor. There is also a snug living room and playroom at the front of the house with a sofa bed should you need to sleep two extra guests. For at-home entertainment, we have provided a Smart TV, board games and reading material.

On the ground floor, there are four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a half bath. Three bedrooms have plush hotel-quality king-size beds, and the fourth bedroom has twin/single beds that can be made into a king-size bed if desired. The main en-suite bedroom has massive picture windows that frame the view of the ancient woodland on the hilltop beyond the large garden.

We have planted a wildflower meadow at the front of the house, which provides a stunning display for both humans and pollinators in the summertime. The back garden is also a wild area, cultivated to attract the abundant wildlife.

Book today, gather the family to give them the good news, and prepare for a wonderful stay with beautiful views courtesy of nature in Petham!
