Communal Areas

Penhill features two welcoming lounges and a large conservatory, offering a variety of spaces for socialising, relaxation, and quiet reflection.

The first lounge is centred around a charming open log fire, creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere. The second lounge serves as both an activities hub and dining room, with open views into the kitchen so residents can chat with the chef and see what’s being prepared for lunch.

The conservatory is fully roofed to maintain a comfortable temperature and provides lovely views of the front garden, making it a bright and peaceful space to enjoy at any time of year.

Gardens

The south-facing front of the house offers scenic views over the River Avon. A spacious patio provides a perfect setting for outdoor gatherings, and in the summer, it is often used for parties and events. Beyond the patio lies a well-kept lawn with flower borders, centred around a large fish pond.

At the rear, a paved courtyard offers a cooler retreat on warmer days, where residents enjoy spending time together, sharing stories, or taking part in activities.
