Adjacent to the owner’s home, your spacious cottage has been tastefully converted to create warm and welcoming accommodation with a rustic and homely feel. Open-plan living space is ideal for family evenings together, playing board games or sharing sociable suppers around the dining table. The windows of the cottage overlook the gardens and farmlands, creating a sense of peace and tranquillity, making this the ideal destination for a restful break.

Enter the cottage and step into the spacious porch, where you can leave muddy walking boots and outdoor clothing. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a lovely space for gathering together to watch a family film or share a tasty meal. The stylish shower room is on this level as well as the first of the three bedrooms, a spacious room with a single bed and futon.
