Branxholme Knowe is a large detached period property which is set in two acres of very well maintained private gardens.
The property benefits from five large double bedrooms and can comfortably accommodate ten adults or two families. Four bedrooms are located around a galleried landing with two bathrooms (one en suite) serving the bedrooms. Downstairs the sitting room and garden room, which is over 40 sq metres, ensure there is plenty of space for all to enjoy. The garden room is a particular favourite with guests as it lends itself to entertaining and is often used as a small function room for family celebrations. The dining room provides a great setting for dinner parties (table seats 12-14) and benefits from an open fire. There is also a twin bedroom downstairs which is served by a bathroom on the same floor. A new fully fitted kitchen was installed in 2009 and all the bathrooms were newly fitted in 2011 and feature quality fittings such as Grohe, Makti and Heritage.
Outside there are two tables and benches, BBQ, a pond (fenced) with cascading runs, large gardens and plenty of woodland for children to explore.
