Home truths

    Whilst the staircase is a stunning architectural feature, it isn't safe for children - this home is an adults-only luxury stay

    The second bedroom is a sofa bed, one to be aware of if there are four guests

    The WiFi in the master bedroom can be a little temperamental

    There isn't a blind covering the bathroom window, but the steam from the shower does a pretty good job

    Rosie requires five days notice for a booking

    This home is not suitable for children
