Outside

Outside living is truly what this cottage is all about.  If the sun is out dine right outside in the secluded walled patio or take your lunch to the bottom of the garden, to the summerhouse or onto the balcony and enjoy the ducks and swans floating by. If BBQ food is more to your taste there is a lit patio area too, as well as a large lawn with trees and shrubs to keep you private.  Ample secure parking is onsite.
