In decorating the cottage we have retained all the lovely oak beams and given it a modern twist.

The second bedroom has a single and double bed along with, plenty of hanging space for you to unpack and unwind.

Bedroom three is cosy and gorgeously decorated with a single bed, hanging rail and chair.

The spotlessly clean bathroom has an over-shower bath, fluffy towels, luxurious toiletries and features 2 of our favourite pieces of artwork in the cottage.

Kitchen

The well-equipped kitchen we hope has everything you need for cooking and a dishwasher to help you clear up afterwards. There is also a washing machine/tumble dryer and a dining table to seat up to 6 people.

Living room

Slow down and stretch out on our comfy sofa in the living room which also features a leather armchair and squishy occasional chair.

There is also an open wood-burning fireplace for those winter months.

Garden

Step outside into a generous lawned garden — perfect for morning coffees, lazy afternoons or a glass of wine at sunset. There’s a patio area with outdoor furniture, great soaking up the country fresh air.

Perfect all year round.

If you’re visiting us in winter, hopefully, you’ll be lucky enough to experience a light dusting of snow, making the entire village and cottage look like something out of the movie ‘The Holiday’.
