• Bedrooms and Bathrooms: six large, individual en suite bedrooms, beautifully appointed with fine furnishings, artworks and marble fireplaces. High quality beds and linens promise a comfy night's sleep, whilst luxury bathrooms - many with whirlpool tubs - offer sanctuaries designed for relaxation and pampering.
