If there is a large group of you, you can book both properties together, The Watch Houses, sleeping 8. Recently finished to a high standard, each property is of the same design, comfortably sleeping four in two double bedrooms. All the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and the two bedrooms in each property are linked by a modern living / eating area.
