A modern kitchen awaits, with a large dining table and plenty of seating for all, will inspire lengthy, relaxed breakfasts and endless dinners where guests can feast. The kitchen is kitted-out with every convenience the modern cook could wish for. As the area is open plan, the cook never needs to miss a moment of the fun.
