A delightful cottage full of
character and charm, at the bottom of a large walled garden.
Sleeps 4 - 5 ~ Prices from £ 300 per week ~ 2 - night short
breaks and Mid-week Business Specials available
This original Coach House has been
imaginatively restored and converted into a delightful cottage
full of character and charm. Situated at the bottom of the large
walled garden, it is a most tranquil and secluded position.
Still in everyday use until the 1950’s, great attention has been
paid to incorporate as many of the original features as possible.
So details such as stable paviors, latch doors, exposed beams and
wood floors are much in evidence. Similarly the style of decor and
furnishings have been carefully chosen to reflect the buildings
original purpose. For example the Tack Room still has the saddle
hooks draped with bridles etc. and the original stove used to heat
the horses bran!
Arranged on two floors the
accommodation downstairs comprises a country style kitchen
complete with an old pine table and dresser plus an array of
kitchenalia, enamel signs and even a "Lazy Susie" clothes airer!
There is of course a cooker, fridge and microwave, as well as
crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. The informal rustic look
is followed through in the adjacent living room. A large rug
covers the terracotta pammet floor and the seating is a miscellany
of comfy chairs. A generously stocked old pine bookcase, some
traditional games, a radio and TV offer a choice of
entertainment.
Upstairs there are two charming double rooms, one has a view of
the Cathedral. Both have Victorian brass and cast iron bedsteads,
with interior sprung mattresses, made up with crisp white cotton
bedding. There is also a single room: originally the grain store
it is now a cosy cabin sized room appealing to young and old
alike. All the beds have hollow fibre duvets and pillows. Every
bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, with a loo, wash hand basin and
a half size bath with shower taps
There is excellent lighting throughout
and gas central heating. Linen, towels, toilet soap, loo rolls,
tea-towels, cleaning materials and some basic provisions are
provided.
Laundry facilities available by
arrangement.
