This whitewashed cottage boasts a front courtyard decorated with colourful flowers and shrubs giving off tantalising aromas. Stepping inside is a convenient entrance space to store coats and boots which then meanders its way to a relaxing living area. Original floorboards and an open fireplace (Logs provided beginning of November to end of February further logs can be purchased from the shop which is just 30 metres away) lay in your wake intertwined with modern amenities in the shape of a Smart TV and a digital piano. Alongside the living space, there is a modern kitchen which provides unrivalled facilities on rustic beech worktops. There is an adjacent dining area with a bespoke, sloping glass roof allowing light to flood into the room and doubles as a bright entertainment space, with French doors to let the fresh coastal air drift through the cottage.

The restful bedrooms consist of one king size bedroom and a further double bedroom which contains an additional single. Passing through the French doors of the conservatory you will find yourself in an outdoor oasis, perfect for a spring or summer afternoon.
