Master and bedroom two
Both of these rooms are in the center of the house and have large windows overlooking the village at the front of the property. They are bright and very generous in size. Both rooms could easily fit a king-size bed with space for a large wardrobe and other furniture without feeling cluttered. Really, they are fantastic.
Bedroom three
