Stepping into this charming little cottage through a low level doorway you will find the contemporary well-equipped kitchen/diner with electric oven and induction hob, fridge, dishwasher, air fryer and microwave. Here you can also enjoy an evening meal at the dining table and chairs. To the right you will find a cosy welcoming lounge where you can relax after a day out exploring, in front of the wood burner, to read a book or watch a movie on the TV/DVD from the selection of DVDs provided. Heading back through the kitchen there is a very low-level doorway, so mind your head, which takes you to the hallway where you will find a utility area with washing machine, small worktop freezer and a wardrobe to store your clothes. The bathroom has a hand-held shower over bath and WC, and a heated towel rail. When your evening is done retire to the tastefully decorated bedroom with double bed.


Stepping back outside there is a lovely little gravelled courtyard with outside bench seating to enjoy a refreshment while watching the beautiful evening sunsets. There is off-road parking available next to the courtyard wall.
