The cottage has exposed beams, good quality furniture, and a cosy woodburner giving it a cosy, warm atmosphere. The well equipped kitchen gives you everything you need for a wonderful self catering break.
The smallest of the three cottages is the Cider Press. It is a single storey building standing on its own which has been converted into a comfortable cottage with either a double or twin room. It is spacious, filled with light and has panoramic views across the East Hill.
