This galleried bedroom features its own external staircase leading directly down to the garden below.
Picture crisp mornings wrapped in the warmth of the wood burner, mugs of coffee in hand as you plan the day's coastal adventures. Spend sun-drenched afternoons on sandy beaches just minutes away, then return to fire up the barbecue on your private patio while the Atlantic breeze carries the scent of salt and wildflowers. As evening settles, gather around the dining table sharing stories of clifftop walks and hidden coves, the crackling fire casting a golden glow across ancient granite walls.
