The spacious holiday accommodation is approached via a level
concrete path from the off road parking area. The front door leads into the
conservatory. In addition to providing a dining area, this room is perfect for
relaxing with a book or just letting your thoughts unwind. The windows look over
your own lawned garden that contains hardwood furniture and portable BBQ. The
garden is bordered by walls and hedges and is dog-proof and private. The
conservatory leads into the kitchen. If you are feeling particularly industrious
there is ample equipment and worktop space to produce a full “Sunday
lunch” Appliances include a toaster, kettle, fridge, microwave,
dishwasher, washing machine/dryer and an electric oven and hob. Leading off the
Kitchen in an L shape is the comfortable living room. There is an electric “wood
burner” that enhances the atmosphere. For your entertainment there is a radio/
cassette/CD player, a satellite Television and a DVD player. There is also a
small collection of books and some CDs and DVD's. From either of the two windows
you can see horses, sheep and cattle grazing in the adjoining fields. You may
even see a fox, hare, heron, kestrel, goldfinch, or any one of the number of
wild life species we have in the area. From the living room, through an inner
hall you will find the tastefully decorated bedroom with its double bed. The
window to the front looks over a garden to the quiet road beyond where you will
often see a herd of cows travelling to and from their twice daily milking
routine. Next to the bedroom is the large bathroom with its bath, WC, wash-hand
basin and separate shower cubicle.
