Upstairs, two double bedrooms, accessed via a steep, traditional cottage staircase, are adorned with sumptuous soft furnishings, creating a luxurious retreat. Outside, the magic continues with a pretty rear garden featuring fruit trees, a covered porch, and a wood-fired hot tub for starlit evenings. Views over open countryside with sheep grazing in nearby fields add to the tranquil charm. A public footpath meanders past the cottage, leading through the neighbouring farm and into the open countryside, perfect for exploring on foot or bike. The external boot room provides additional storage, and there’s a safe space for bikes too. The nearby local pub serves up real ales and hearty home-cooked meals, just a short drive away.
