Sleeping two, the interior of the home exudes a rustic charm, with its high ceilings and wooden beams giving a traditional feel. After exploring the nearby countryside trails, you can curl up in the warmth of the electric fire inside or listen to the birds in the charming courtyard garden.
On the ground floor, you'll find an open-plan living space which features an inviting lounge area where you can relax and unwind after a memorable day. A stylish kitchen complete with granite worktops has everything you could need to prepare and cook romantic meals for two. Plus, there's a cosy dining area with garden views.
