In addition to the 2 cottages, my house has 4 guest bedrooms. A few times a year I will host a group in the guest bedrooms of the house as well as the 2 cottages - for example for a wedding weekend, bridge parties, yoga groups, art tutorials, writing groups, etc. This is to offer a house party atmosphere where bed and breakfast and either lunch or an evening meal are provided, so the party can concentrate on the activity they are here for.
