In the corner, you’ll find a charming wood-burning stove, perfect for spending a night by the roaring fire with a good book and a glass of wine.

The broad floor plan extends right into the dining and kitchen area, where you’ll find a gourmet space that’s well-equipped to achieve culinary mastery. The kitchen area is charming, with gleaming wooden countertops and an electric oven a hob to help you create delicious meals.

When dinner is served, the wooden dining table offers plenty of seating for everyone, or head to the teak outdoor dining setup to enjoy your meal as the sun goes down.

In the cottage you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms, each boasting en-suite bathrooms and incredible amenities for you to enjoy, such as 400 thread count cotton bedding and indulgent, cozy robes to don after a relaxing soak in the tub.
