Please be aware that there is no outside space with this cottage and only 1 door at the front of the property. Cottage is very small downstairs with an adequate kitchen area opening into a small seating/lounge area, there is no separate eating area but a drop leaf table is provided for meals or you can eat meals on your knees which is what we tended to do. Seating in the lounge needs attention there is one new chair which is comfortable but the small armchair and sofa have seen better days and could do with replacing in our opinion. Bedrooms are spacious with comfortable beds and lovely cotton bedding . We all slept well. Stairs in the property are very steep but there is a good solid handrail however I would think it is not a property suited to the elderly /infirm.
