"The stone cottage was originally constructed 150 to 200 years ago and maintains much of its original features and charm. It comprises of the main cottage and an additional self-contained unit.

"On entering through the bright yellow half-door of the main cottage, into the large open plan living room, you immediately get a sense of space with high ceilings that feature throughout. The hearth with its marvelous rough stonework used to be where cooking was done, now contains a solid fuel stove for wonderful winter evenings. Behind the feature fireplace, there is one bedroom and the main bathroom.

"To the right of the entrance is a library/ study area and this leads into the large south/ west facing kitchen/ dining room.

"There is a large en-suite bedroom, which was converted from an old barn and is now incorporated into the main cottage. This beautiful area has its own kitchenette, en-suite bathroom, and its own external entrance should you wish to have family and friends stay but enjoy their own comforts.

"The other outbuilding is a stand-alone poured concrete building from the 1950s and was used for farm equipment and pigsty. After renovation, it is now a guest suite, small in size yet there is a wonderful sense of space with white walls, high ceilings, fitted kitchen, bedroom with built-in wardrobe, and a large en-suite bathroom.
