The kist in the hall is packed with games and toys.

Upstairs

The second bedroom has a double bed and large storage cupboards.  There is space for an additional single bed in this room.

The third bedroom has a combe ceiling and is probably most suitable for children or for adults who don't mind restricted headroom. Children would love this room as there is a large area for playing. There are two single beds but if there is to be only one person in the room the second bed can be stored underneath the first.  

Outside

Sheltered seating beside the front door is ideal for catching the evening sun. Outside the back door is a raised area of decking overlooking the large garden.  There is plenty of garden furniture and a BBQ.  One of the sheds can be made available to store bikes.  

There is ample parking by the cottage and in the lane.

We can accept well behaved dogs by prior arrangement. The area around the cottage is ideal for those early morning and late night walks.
