Good to Know Before You Book
This is a semi-detached cottage, so some noise will carry and consideration for the neighbours is appreciated. The stairs to the three bedrooms are steep, and shoes need to be taken off before going up. The garden is fenced and gated at the front, but an escape by an excited child or dog can`t always be ruled out, so an eye should be kept on both. Check-in is self check-in via the keybox by the front door, with full details shared on the morning of arrival.

Extra charges
Pets are welcome at £15 per pet per stay, up to a maximum of 2; please include any pets when booking. Early check-in and late check-out can be requested at £30 per hour, subject to availability. A range of concierge extras can also be arranged, including welcome hampers, wine tasting, a private chef, clay pigeon shooting, horse riding and e-bike delivery to the door, all subject to availability and requested after booking through a secure third-party platform.
