A spectacular, detached stone-built cottage, surrounded by spectacular countryside views, there's surely no better choice for a rural escape with your loved ones. Marvel at the impressive exterior of the property, soaking in the peace and quiet, before stepping inside to the excitement of the inviting open-plan living space. The property exudes character throughout, with exposed stone walls, original beams and a contemporary twist in its decor, this theme being evidenced in the spectacular sociable space before you; gather all together around the impressive dining table as the warmth of the woodburning stove fills the room, the chef of the group making the most of the high-quality appliances at hand, the breakfast bar making the perfect spot for little helpers too. Gather around the warmth of the stove in a smaller group, or carry your conversations through to the sitting room where a second woodburning stove awaits you amidst its luxe furnishings. Take the stairs from the snug, moving past the convenient ground-floor shower room where you can hose off after a relaxing soak in the hot tub beneath the stars, and be greeted by four of the beautiful bedrooms; take your pick from a super-king-size with an en-suite bathroom, a king-size, a double with an en-suite shower room and a twin with zip/link functions being a double on request, all being served by the glamourous family bathroom where you can choose from a dip in the freestanding bath or a soothing shower in the large walk-in enclosure.

Outside the wonder only continues; get together around the sunken fire pit and while away the hours exchanging stories of your favourite holiday moments so far before sinking into the warm waters of the hot tub.

    It's location, just 5 minutes drive to shops, restaurants and pubs but half a mile down a farm track makes it convenient yet quiet and peaceful, and it's very accessible to the local attractions. We had no issues at all, but did need to contact the owner and we received an immediate and helpful response; I'm confident in the unlikely event of a problem it would be resolved immediately. Highly recommended. Many thanks to Sarah & Nic, we had a lovely week.

  • Alan

    We chose to eat in a lot of the time and the layout of the property, particularly the kitchen/dining room, allows you to do this with comfort. It is a good location which allows you to reach most local attractions within a short time. We had a great time.

    Cannot fault a single thing, it felt like a luxury 5 star resort. Spotlessly clean, beautiful interior design, perfect blend of modern and character property, stunning garden and views, even the hot tub was high end. And a lovely touch having dressing gowns and slippers for everyone to use. We had the best girly pamper weekend, a local lady came to do treatments for all of us which was amazing (www.feelgoodhq.co.uk) the house was like our own private spa! I would highly recommend and I can’t wait to come back again.
