This gorgeous holiday cottage, which dates back to the 17th century, has an abundance of period features and traditional English country charm. This is tastefully combined with the provision of all the modern conveniences that you would expect to find in a 5 star cottage.
The standard of the accommodation at East Cottage reflects our very high expectations of quality, cleanliness, attention to detail and service.
Our charming holiday cottage is set in a beautiful rural location; lots of fresh air, farmland and farm animals with great walks and country pubs on the doorstep – always a good combination for keeping children, and parents (!) amused.
The cottage itself has many lovely attributes. On the ground floor is the beamed living/dining-room with open inglenook fireplace, exposed stone walls and stone mullion windows, as well as TV, DVD and IPod dock; well-equipped kitchen with fridge, freezer, gas hob, electric oven and microwave; and utility room with washing-machine and dishwasher.
A beautiful stone spiral staircase leads up to the first floor to the 2 large double bedrooms and bathroom with WC, washbasin, bath and separate shower cubicle. Again, beams, mullion windows and charming features in abundance!
The cottage sleeps 4 (plus cot) in two bedrooms comprising 1 with king size double bed, and the other which can either be made up as a super king size double, or with 2 twin single beds. The cottage is therefore ideal for both families with children, or for couples trying to escape them!
Children of all ages are welcome at East Cottage. A travel cot is provided, as well as stair-gates and high chair. We provide a baby-changing mat and baby bath, and there is also a toy box and a selection of games, jigsaws, books and DVDs.
The cottage has gas central heating and free Wi-Fi. Towels are provided, as well as tea towels, toiletries, quality bed linen and an initial supply of logs for cosy nights in by the fire. We also provide basics such as tea, coffee, milk, sugar and cake!
There are 2 parking spaces for the exclusive use of guests staying at East Cottage in the courtyard to the right of the cottage. Behind the courtyard, a small flight of steps leads to the private, secluded and gated garden. The well-established walled garden includes lawned areas, herbaceous borders and a south-facing patio, ideal for ‘al fresco’ dining. We also provide a barbeque and a supply of charcoal.
The cottage is about 100 yards walking distance of the village shop, which sells local produce,and 300 yards to the wonderful village pub.
