Hello, we are the Carlton family, Frances, Steve, Ross (16), Louise (11) and Granny (retired)
Our home was originally built in the 1800's with an extension added in the 1970's. The house has been fully modernised in the last 5 years to provide us with a very comfortable home. We are a Non Smoking household.
On the ground floor there are 2 sitting rooms both with TV,DVD & Sky boxes (for digital TV stations). a kitchen/diner (washing machine, dishwasher, gas hob & electric oven, tumble drier in the garage) with a full sized table which can seat 6, downstairs w.c and double bedroom. There is access to the garden from 1 of the sitting rooms.
On the second floor there are 2 double bedrooms and a single bedroom (our teenage son's room with a double bed) along with a family bathroom which has a separate shower, corner bath, pedestal sink & w.c
There would be a Wi, XBOx & PS2 available, also a Snooker table & outside there is a fully enclosed trampoline. The garden is fully enclosed with patio, table & chairs (for the Summer!) and a BBQ. Broadband would be available, although you would need to bring along your own laptop.
We have added a picture of our cat, Ziggy. He is very friendly, spends a lot of his time outside hunting for mice in the fields! He comes in during the day to be fed and at night to sleep. If you are willing to feed him he could stay at home, if not he will have his holidays at the Cattery.
