A truly exceptional cottage with the most amazing garden. All very well looked after and maintained. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you could need and more. The garden is home to a wide variety of wildl8fe and the sound of the running water from the stream is perfect. There are little footpaths leading from the garden into the woods, it's perfect.
