Where You’ll Do It
Fensgrove is a beautiful house that lives up to the expectation of being a home. It is decorated to a high standard, with warm wallpaper, soft furnishings and accessories that match. Fensgrove has a large outdoor space with a big garden that looks out onto the local nature reserve – a lovely place to sit and look at the evening as the sun goes down. The garden is full of playful toys and a large paddling pool.
