Full Description
We have a beautiful ancient building with open churchyard with plenty of room for pictures. There is a good traditional church organ but also a soundsytem you can plug modern gadgets into. There is a small kitchen if you want to diy refreshments for your guests. For that extra joy as you arrive or leave we have six bells in the tower which can be rung.
