For those who enjoy the warmth of a fire, logs and coal are provided for the first three days of their stay.

The heart of the cottage is its traditional pine kitchen, which retains much of its original charm. The pamment floor adds to the cottage’s historic feel, while the kitchen is fully equipped with modern conveniences, including a gas cooker, fridge, washing machine, and microwave. The large dining table provides ample space for meals, and the charming old door, complete with an oversized key, opens out to the sheltered rear courtyard garden, making it perfect for al fresco dining.

Upstairs, the cottage's period features continue with a Norfolk winder staircase leading to a landing area with original Georgian floorboards, a built-in pine wardrobe, and additional seating. The family bathroom is one of the highlights of the property, featuring a freestanding Victorian roll-top bath, a spacious walk-in shower, and a high-level cistern WC.
