Large train tracks outside to run the Polar Express train! Heated by 2 big heatpumps upstairs, and a gas fire downstairs, the house is cosy warm on a cold day. Or run them on cooling if you need to escape the heat in summer! A portacot with sheets is available on request. Note that the living space and most of the bedrooms are upstairs.
