THE SPACE

Entering Robins Cottage, you immediately feel at home, with warm and welcoming interiors, inviting decorative touches and indulgent cottage charm.

Complete with dishwasher, fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee machine, oven and hob and a washing machine. From the kitchen is a handy downstairs cloakroom and a rear entrance door which opens onto the pretty terraced garden.

The main living space is set on the ground floor and is well laid out with carefully selected furnishings to create the perfect space for gathering, with a smart tv and comfy sofas set around the beautiful wood burning stove and double aspect views.

The first of two bedrooms, both of which are positioned on the first floor, is laid out with a double bed with a view out to the cottage garden and beyond. The soft colour palette and the sumptuous furnishings are the perfect recipe for rest and relaxation. This bedroom has an en suite room with shower over bath, basin and WC.

With views out across the rolling countryside and decorated in calm tones the second super king bedroom (Twin beds upon request) has a lovely, relaxed feel, with beautifully soft linens inviting you to rest your head and drift off to holiday dreaming. An en suite completes this beautiful space complete with shower over bath, basin and WC. There is also a dressing area providing ample storage and a tv positioned across from the bed for even more relaxed evenings.

The beautiful and secluded terrace is a lovely spot for al fresco suppers, morning coffee whilst planning the day’s adventures or a welcome sundowner at the end of a day spent exploring. The garden is to the rear of the cottage and offers the space to while away an afternoon with a good book, for children to play or a bottle of fizz!

Please note – dogs are welcome to join you for your stay. A cot and highchair are also available if required.
