Enjoy a pre-dinner aperitif over a game of billiards in the games room, before enjoying a meal around the large dining table in the open-plan living-dining. Enjoy the two spacious lounges while staying connected with Wi-Fi and a smart TV. With board games and books as well theres endless entertainment for everyone here!
