Inside the front door is a small entrance porch ideal for drying coats and muddy boots. The kitchen is to your left as you enter, and the open-plan sitting room and dining area to the right. There is a cloakroom with WC downstairs. French doors lead from the sitting room to the sun-room that makes the most of the chance to sit and enjoy the lovely view over the combe beyond the garden. A sliding door gives access to a patio that is also reached by french doors at the West end and another sliding door from the dining area.
Upstairs is the large double aspect bedroom with lovely views. It has a King-sized four-poster bed and there is ample hanging space in the wardrobes and a chest of drawers. The bathroom is off the upstairs landing, which has a bath with overhead shower, hand basin and loo. Water heating is electric and controlled by a timer switch on the landing. The second bedroom is only used for storage of laundry and cleaning equipment.
The house is double glazed and well insulated. The wood-burner is very efficient at heating the cottage. Logs are provided; the log store is to the right of the front door. Plug in electric heaters are provided for additional heat should you require them. Please bear in mind that on chilly days, the best means of keeping the house cosy is the log burner.
