The kitchen is fully fitted with plenty of storage and slate worktops. The chefs in the family can choose from cooking on either the range cooker or the electric built in oven. A separate electric hob is also situated on the large kitchen island and meals can be rustled up whilst other family members are relaxing on the sofa or seated around the large pine farmhouse table.
