Come Inside

Relax in comfort!

After watching the sun set behind distant mountains, - either from the garden, terrace or conservatory - there's room for everyone to relax in front of a crackling log fire. All the wood and coal you need is stocked in the garage. If you are a 'townie' and don't know how to light a country cottage coal fire, there are full kindling instructions in the comprehensive cottage directory!
Choose a comforting book from the extensive collection throughout High Beeches, or plan your next day - all the maps and guides you need are provided.

Or perhaps watch a video from the library or the informative Wye Valley, birds and angling videos. With 3 colour televisions, three video players, throughout the property, Freeview channels during 2009 + CD and music system, there is also a collection of indoor games at hand kept in the garage cupboard along with the table tennis and a large fridge you can fill with wines & beer whilst you play. The choice is yours.
Of course, with fine Forest fayre whether fed locally or enjoyed in High Beeches oak & pine dining room - plus a perfect day behind you, and maybe a fine fire in front of you - the art of conversation may flourish long into the night.....
