The sofa here converts to a comfortable sofa bed that could fit 2 more people (ideally children) as it is a small sofa bed.

* Living, Dining & Outdoor Spaces *
The main house living and dining areas enjoy river views and open directly onto a large terrace. The dining table seats 6 comfortably and up to 8 when extended, and there are plenty of sofas and armchairs for everyone. The pellet burner makes this a wonderful space for cosy evenings year-round.
The River Studio also features an additional living and dining area with a large sofa and dining table for 6, framed by wide windows overlooking the river.

Both the main house and the studio kitchens are fully equipped for longer stays. A large utility/laundry room adjoins the studio, alongside a garage/storage space ideal for surfboards or other equipment. The house also has its own laundry area.
Guest access
Guests have exclusive access to the entire house and studio.
*Parking*
Private parking for one car is available on a sloped drive leading to the River Studio. Please note that this is only for experienced drivers, as the parking is on quite a steep slope. We suggest renting an automatic car as this will be easier.
Alternatively, affordable parking is available all around the house.
Approx €3.50/day or €11.50/week (pay at machine or better, download the EasyPark app)
Free evenings and Sundays
You may stop briefly outside the house to unload. Please park ONLY in front of number 23 and be mindful of parking wardens.
