Honeysuckle Cottage, which sleeps up to four in two bedrooms, is our own rural retreat and is accordingly well stocked with the regular day-to-day necessities including broadband connection - home from home in a very real sense. Double-glazed and gas centrally heated throughout, with stylish freestanding stove as a boost, the cottage retains its country cottage atmosphere. The fully equipped country-look kitchen leads to a west-facing courtyard garden complete with bistro table and two chairs and overlooked by an attractive summerhouse with its own seating. Prices include all bedlinen, towels, electricity, central heating, broadband facilities etc. There is on-street parking opposite and parking is free throughout the village.

Bedroom 1
The master bedroom has a king-size double bed in ‘shabby chic’ finish, with matching bedside tables and chest-of-drawers. There is also a built-in wardrobe with ample hanging space. Plenty of natural light through the beautiful windows with their small square glazing panes, traditional in the area.
Bedroom 2
The smaller bedroom is compact, but will comfortably accommodate one person in its 3-ft single bed. A second person can be accommodated via a pull-out underbed, thus forming 2 single beds or, pushed together, forming a spacious 6-ft double, while retaining enough space for a small wardrobe.
