Accommodation in Acton includes a delightful detached stone cottage dating back to 1867, which provides a warm and inviting atmosphere. Upon entering, guests are greeted by a tastefully furnished lounge featuring a blend of traditional and modern decor, complete with a cozy wood burner and television. The kitchen/diner is equally charming, boasting a comfortable lounge area and a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, alongside a utility room that houses additional facilities such as a washing machine and freezer.
Upstairs, the cottage offers two spacious double bedrooms, one of which includes an en suite shower room, as well as a shared bathroom. An attic bedroom serves as a fun den for children, featuring twin beds that are best suited for younger guests due to the low ceilings.
