​"What a stunning place to stay. We could not recommend this place enough. The décor, location, layout, facilities breakfast hamper, cleanliness are to such a high standard." - Ollie & Katherine

As you enter the cottage you are welcomed into a recently renovated state of the art kitchen, with all the mod cons you would expect from a home away from home; full sized double oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave, and spacious breakfast bar that seats four. During winter months, guests will appreciate the underfloor heating, adding that extra level of cosy.

A double living room sits in the 400 year old section of the cottage. Lined with original wooden beams, open fireplaces and plush seating, this space is perfect for a relaxing evening in with a bottle of wine. To the back of the property is a stunning architecturally crafted extension, home to a modern shower room, spacious dining room and cosy snug with 65" TV and small double (3/4) sized sofa bed (suitable for 1 adult or 2 children).

Heading upstairs there is a family bathroom with free-standing bath tub and three bedrooms. The king-sized master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with shower. The second bedroom is a king, and the third is an en-suite with twin beds (or zip-linked to be a super king on request). Peek through the century-old windows to view unobstructed views of the surrounding countryside.

To the back of the cottage is a beautiful, secluded garden offering the perfect space for family and friends to relax. During warmer months, this is an ideal spot to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing or hiking through the local countryside. Whilst the children are off exploring, the adults can sit back, rustle up a delicious meal, and enjoy a glass or two. There is also a brand new tennis court with basketball hoop. Tennis rackets and balls are provided.

Guest Testimonials

"We had the most wonderful experience! The house is beautiful and every detail has been considered. We had three generations together and there was something for everyone. Plenty of space, amenities and activities. We enjoyed our time in the house and on the surrounding grounds. Equally there were lots of lovely places to visit in close proximity to the property. Our young son loved the toys, books and games. The grandparents loved the reading spots, puzzles and views from the hill. My husband and I loved the tennis court and cooking in the kitchen. We will definitely be back for another stay in the future, so relaxing and fun-filled. Thank you also to Kate and the team for their hospitality and responsiveness to all my questions."
