There is an Arger-type cooker (wood-burning cooker) and plenty of cupboards and storage. This leads into a living room with high wooden ceilings. Leading off the living room is one very large bedroom, then leading off the living room at the rear of the room, is a full bathroom with compost toilet, and 2 bedrooms, one double and one single (although could be a twin or double as room big enough).
