About this property
Perfect for that large gathering to celebrate something special, enjoy endless entertainment provided by the hot tub, games barn, arboretum, loggia, sunken garden, games consoles, 6 bicycles (including a tandem), croquet, boules and much more. Bearwood House and Cottage are elegant half-timbered properties adjacent to each other set in an idyllic setting a stone's throw from picturesque Pembridge.
The combination of these two delightful properties at Bearwood tick all the boxes for a gathering of family and friends. With ample space to join together, along with separate accommodation to enjoy your own space and privacy. The main house, Bearwood House is adjacent to but entirely separate from Bearwood Cottage.
Inside the main house there's plenty of room to spread out with a large L-shaped sitting room divided by beams, giving separate areas to relax whilst still being together. A large open fire warms the space and plenty of comfy seating is provided to enjoy it. Perfect for catering for large groups, the farmhouse kitchen has both an Aga and an electric oven and hob, and a small breakfast table. The room spills through into an enormous dining room, large enough to seat all 15 guests. One of the five bedrooms is downstairs, along with a shower room. The remaining four bedrooms are upstairs on the first floor; bedroom one enjoys its own en-suite, with a family bathroom servicing the remaining bedrooms.
Wander across the large driveway to the cottage with its roaring open fire in the sitting room and warming Rayburn oven in the farmhouse kitchen/dining room. Upstairs, bedroom one is welcoming, spacious and luxuriously comfortable with a super-king size zip and link bed framed by the characterful timber beams. This room offers flexible accommodation with the option for young families to utilise the day bed if required. Bedroom two is equally charming, with more exposed beams and a comfy king-size bed. Both bedrooms have use of the spacious family bathroom and there is plenty of storage on the landing.
Endless entertainment is provided. The house is set in grounds of more than an acre with an arboretum, sunken garden and loggia and there is a luxury outdoor hot tub for six people. The games barn provides a pool table, air hockey table, tennis table and darts board. Six bicycles plus a tandem, croquet, badminton, boules and many other garden games are provided. There is an Xbox One S in both properties, Bose SoundLink and a good selection of board games. Tennis is also available at the owner's house nearby.
Just a mile away in the "black and white" village of Pembridge is the 15th century New Inn where you can be sure of a warm welcome and a hearty meal; a super village shop, cafe and farm shop too; and, less than a mile from Bearwood House is the excellent Cider Barn restaurant, an absolute must for a special lunch or dinner during your stay (gourmet frozen meals can also be picked up to warm up in the Aga at Bearwood House). Or for a really special occasion, catering can be arranged at the house.
