With a capacity to sleep four guests across two elegantly designed bedrooms, the cottage combines contemporary style with original charm, thanks to the meticulous restoration by interior designer Katharine Pooley. The open-plan living and dining area features a cosy woodburning stove, while the fully-equipped kitchen boasts a range cooker and all necessary amenities, ensuring a comfortable stay.
The sleeping arrangements include a luxurious king-size master suite with an en-suite bathroom, and a versatile guest room that can be configured as either a king-size double or two single beds upon request.
