The Cottage is a fantastic self contained barn conversion.
The space is large, light, open and airy but is cosy in colder weather with a huge wood burning stove and highly efficient underfloor heating through out.
One bedroom has a king bed and the other a twin and single bed. We can put a temporary bed in the king room for a 6th guest and a mattress on the floor for a 7th guest.
The hosts live in the main house on site some 75 metres away from the Cottage and are available when required.
The Cottage benefits from a private decking area and courtyard and has
gorgeous views over 4 acres of private park like gardens, containing a small private lake and stream.
Please note the following
1. The cottage is directly above a riding menage and occasionally horses may be exercised there-in.
2.In addition there are steep terraced flower beds immediately below the decking so small children must be supervised at all times.
3. The Wi-fi is good but for mobile phone reception in the building is limited although it is available at the top of the driveway which is about 100 metres away.
Make sure you login to the Wi-fi as soon as you arrive so that you can use your mobile plan through the Wi-fi if you switch Wi-fi calling on on your mobiles.
4 Please note that the driveway is somewhat cambered so may not be suitable for very unstable guests though there is parking very close to the Cottage so the amount of walking required to access the building is limited. The cottage is all on one level with no steps internally
Guests can make use of indoor pool and private tennis court which is near the main house but please note the following:
