Tenants of Westcove House may usually also use the games room and small gym/sauna, both of which are shared with tenants of The Stables but have their own external entrances. However, please note that whilst Covid restrictions remain in place, the Games Room, Sauna and Exercise Room in The Stables may only be used by guests actually staying in The Stables, unless they are part of a larger group who are also booked into Westcove House and/or Garden Cottage). The large lawn in front of The Stables is great for visitors of all ages to 'let off steam', and has a swing set in the corner for younger children. If you are considering a small wedding or other celebration, a marquee can be erected on the lawn to cater for a maximum of 80 guests.
