Believed to date back to circa 1921, this delightful forest cottage has been refurbished in recent times including replacement windows and retains all the charm you would expect of a period cottage.

Both bedrooms are good sized rooms with the main bedroom at the front benefiting from a built in double wardrobe and ornamental fire surround. A loft hatch from here accesses the loft void which is part boarded for further storage.
