With two spacious bedrooms, offering a comfortable space to rest your head after a day exploring. Outside, the dining area allows you to eat al fresco and fully appreciate the peace, wildlife, and countryside air, open to the grounds of the estate should children want to freely explore.

The Summer house is situated on a private estate. Surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and very quiet . You will see so much wildlife right outside the window . The Cottage is very ciean and has everything you would need to make for a great mini break . I would bring supplies as the supermarkets are a few short miles away but I managed a delivery with no issues. The owners Rob and Jane are so nice and helpful . My little dog loved it , fabulous sniffs and trails on the doorstep and beautiful horses to admire . Will definitely go back when I need a peaceful calm break .
