This charming cottage accommodates up to five guests, featuring two bedrooms: a master bedroom with a luxurious kingsize bed and a roll-top bath, and a second bedroom with two single beds and an additional pull-out bed. The cottage boasts modern amenities, including a shower room, a separate downstairs loo, and a cozy wood-burner stove, all set against a backdrop of oak floors and exposed beams that enhance the rustic charm. Outside, guests can enjoy their own patio seating area, though barbecues are not permitted due to the nearby thatched roof.
