Ideally situated in an idyllic and rural setting, surrounded by farmland, peaceful, tranquil and with an abundance of wildlife on your doorstep. The main cottage is approached by a track lined with a post and rail fence and a five-bar gate, accessed by a porch which leads into a cosy open-plan reception and dining room, with built-in storage and a log burning stove. The dual aspect kitchen offers a range of wall and base units and there is a separate WC and bathroom with a freestanding shower and bath. On the northern side of the house, is a covered area with access to a utility room / store. To the first floor there are two dual-aspect east and west facing double bedrooms with built in wardrobes and access to the eaves.
