The open-plan living space is light-filled and welcoming, designed to make the most of the incredible countryside setting. French doors open onto the garden, while large windows frame uninterrupted hillside and valley views. The comfortable lounge area is perfect for slow mornings or cosy evenings, complete with a Smart TV. The dining table is thoughtfully positioned so you can enjoy meals together while taking in the stunning outlook, whether it’s a leisurely breakfast or a candlelit dinner. The kitchen is well-appointed and ideal for relaxed, self-catered stays. The king-size bedroom has been styled with calm tones and soft furnishings to create a restful, romantic retreat, complemented by an en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower. All accommodation is arranged across one level, creating an intimate and easy-to-enjoy space for two.

The outside space is truly special, with a large garden and a furnished patio area offering views across rolling hills and open countryside. It’s a beautiful spot to sit with a morning coffee, enjoy a glass of wine at sunset, or simply pause and take in the tranquillity. The setting is a haven for wildlife, with regular sightings of buzzards, red kites, and other native birds. Thanks to the low light pollution, evenings are perfect for stargazing on clear nights.
