About this property

Sitting within the peaceful village of Syresham, is this super semi-detached cottage; Kite Cottage. With the area known for its red kite sightings, this holiday home is a great base for a family retreat or a couple's escape to south Northamptonshire. Enter into the bright and airy porch and hang up your coats before stepping into the sitting room; a homely spot with a cosy seating arrangement to spend time watching your favourite films with the provided DVD player. The kitchen echoes a contemporary feel through its monochrome interior, where you can enjoy preparing a delicious meal for the group while the patio doors let in the fresh countryside breeze in the warmer months. Sit out on the patio, while the little ones enjoy playing on the lawn to end each day perfectly. Moving onto the first floor you will reach the two bedrooms, the cottage hosts a king-size and a twin room, both with a homely aura. Choose from either a bath or a shower in the stylish bathroom, before retreating to the study and delving into a good book for some quiet time to yourself. Enjoy time together by taking a wander into the local village, stopping at the pub for a refreshing pint and a delicious dinner, before heading out on one of the many walking routes in the local area including Whistley and Hazelborough Wood, the Ouse Valley Way and Syresham to Crowfield, perfect for the avid walker or those simply seeking to explore the delights of the countryside. For a more challenging ramble, be sure to venture to the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with rolling hills, medieval villages and a plethora of historic sights waiting to be discovered, it's well-worth a visit. Various attractions can be reached via a short journey from the property; visit Silverstone Circuit to discover the home of the British Grand Prix as well as the new Silverstone experience motor racing museum.
