The Cottage sits nestled in the valley adjoining the main house. Although it lies beside the house it benefits from its own private access from the upper part of the driveway - ensuring privacy for guests to come and go without notice.

The Cottage is equipped and tastefully furnished to a high standard and has reversed accommodation to make the most of the beautiful countryside views from the upstairs windows.

There is also a private patio area attached to the cottage with seating and a BBQ which can be accessed from the ground floor.

Entrance is through a stable door into the kitchen/living room. This is a large open plan room with a vaulted ceiling, open beams, slate floors and features a hand built painted kitchen at one end with a dining table that seats six.

Amenities include: oven, hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine / drier and microwave.

The other end of the open plan room acts as the living room area and features two sofas - a 2 and 3 seater arranged around an old fashioned wood burning stove. There's a colour TV with DVD and radio.

The French doors have stunning views across the valley and open onto a balustrade.

Stairs from the open plan room lead down to the ground floor where there is a bathroom with a WC, hand basin and bath with an overhead power shower.
