There is a step to the entrance of this characterful cottage set over two levels. Step inside and you will find contemporary styling blending with a touch of classic country-style furnishings. There are plenty of thoughtful touches in the decor that create a welcoming, relaxing ambience for your stay. On the ground floor, you will find a lovely, bright kitchen/diner with all the appliances and space you need to make meal preparation a breeze. A charming dining table sits to one side, and with the addition of some simple and homely touches, this feels like a warm social space. At the end of a day of adventure, there is an inviting lounge with welcoming armchairs for you to sink into and unwind. The room is light and boasts characterful exposed wooden beams. Enjoy a cup of tea in the afternoon, read, or turn on the Smart TV to binge on your favourite box set. Head upstairs from the lounge and you’ll find a comfortable, double bedroom with a changing area, plenty of storage, and an en-suite bathroom with a bath and a shower attachment.

Head outside to enjoy an enclosed garden with a lawned area and patio garden furniture, making this the ideal spot for dining alfresco on fine summer evenings. Private parking for one car is available.
