Enjoy a quiet moment to yourself within the snug, overlooking the beauty of the front lawn, here you can delve into a good book or enjoy quality time with a loved one.

The dining room makes the perfect place for the whole group to gather, with ample seating for all, serve up your delicious homemade meals here when you're not out sampling the delicious eateries of the local area.

The kitchen provides a good range of utensil and appliances to make your culinary needs a breeze, as well as being equipped with a modest breakfast table for more casual dining moments in the morning.

Also resting on the ground floor is a convenient cloakroom with utility functions, housing both a washing machine and tumble dryer, this cottage has everything you could need for a self-catered stay.

Up on the first floor you will find the three well-presented bedrooms, made up of a twin, a double and a king-size, offering a flexible sleeping arrangement for a variety of group needs, as well as each room benefiting from its own television with Freeview and an en-suite shower room!

The property also offers a family bathroom, so you can enjoy a relaxing soak in the tub after a day of adventure before snuggling beneath the crisp white linens of the bed.
