About the property
Reeves Cottage blends historic charm with modern comfort. Originally built in the 16th century and carefully restored, it retains exposed beams, wide timber floors and characterful stonework while enjoying high-end finishes, contemporary amenities and thoughtful design. Set within a peaceful village close to the coast, it offers an easy connection to countryside walks, quiet lanes and the shoreline. Each space is crafted to feel calm and inviting, with natural light, warm textures and quiet corners that encourage rest and ease.
The space
Step through the front door into a wide, welcoming hallway with stone floors and heritage detailing. The generous living area is the heart of the cottage - a place to relax, gather and unwind. Comfortable sofas, soft lighting and exposed beams create a warm and timeless atmosphere, perfect for evenings spent together.

The kitchen is both elegant and practical, with quality cabinetry, stone worktops, modern appliances and a dining table for six. Outside, views span across peaceful countryside, creating a beautiful backdrop for mealtimes.

All three bedrooms are located upstairs, creating a clear separation between social and private spaces. Each room is a restful retreat, furnished with upholstered headboards, crisp linens and soft textures. Two offer king-sized beds, while the third features a super-king bed with an en-suite, making the layout ideal for families, couples or friends. The hallway bathroom features a luxurious free-standing bath.
