Step inside, past the topiary bunnies flanking the front door, and you’re in a wonderfully mellow space with a long bar, leather armchairs and open fires. Filled with light from long windows, it is a halcyon room; with a pewter-hung dresser, fireplace and tremendous display table adorned with prodigious hedgerow arrangements, it is evidently modelled on a vision of an ideal farmhouse kitchen. Named after woodland creatures, all of the rooms are rustic-chic, with beds clad in the softest Egyptian linen, twig coat-hooks behind doors and, in several rooms, four posters fashioned from birch trunks.
