The large high-beamed sitting room has an open fireplace, two sofas, slate hearth &TV. At one end of the room is a well equipped fitted kitchen with electric cooker & oven, a large fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washer/drier and a large farm house table with six chairs.

Above the kitchen area is an open gallery with a spring-loaded gate, reached by a great sliding stair ladder. The gallery has two narrow mattresses under the eaves.

Pella offers two bedrooms, one double and one twin. The large double, which is on the ground floor, has an en-suite bathroom with a Victorian roll top bath. The twin bedroom can be found on the first floor and has a separate loo and shower room.

Our favourite part of Pella is the large south-facing terrace overlooking the gardens that lead on to fields and down to a stream. It is perfect for catching the sun all day and watching the stars by night.
