In more recent times, the cottage has been sympathetically renovated and rooved and includes leaded light effect windows and LPG central heating. The property is secluded away from a small selection of luxury holiday cottages and has adjoining open farm land and is set within mature gardens and includes off-road parking.

There is a double aspect dining / sitting room with exposed beams and timbers, inglenook fireplace with inset log burner. One side has a library area and doors leading out to the garden. Steps lead down to the kitchen / breakfast room which has been fitted with a range of matching wall and base units with granite work surfaces, belfast sink, range cooker, extractor canopy over, a dishwasher, slate flooring and door to outside. There's a brick utility room, freezer room and ground floor bedroom / study. On the first floor there are 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a shower room.
Outside - The property is set within large surrounding gardens which include large expanses of lawn with deep planted boundaries. At the bottom of the garden is a timber pergola with BBQ area and wishing well. There is also a further stone built out building, pond and timber decking area with covered hot tub. At the front of the house is a concrete parking area which provides parking and turning for a number of vehicles. At the back of the house the land rises steeply to a further area of garden which enjoys wonderful views over surrounding fields.
