Property information

This quintessential country cottage offers fresh, light Hamptons style decorations in a spacious luxuriously appointed self contained cottage. The front veranda welcomes you into the open plan living room with a wood burning fire (and airconditioning). Push back the Plantation shutters for views to the garden and pony paddock - you'll know you are really on holiday! The king size bed is adjacent to the living room and can be closed off by sliding plantation doors if you choose - or simply enjoy the space and light and views out the windows. A beautiful bathroom offers you an indulgent deep slipper bath, a walk in shower and beautiful window - again with Plantation shutters you can open up the windows and your loved one can pass you a glass of bubbly while you loll in the bath! Perfect! The hallway hides a full laundry ready for you if required and this leads you into the beautifully equipped kitchen with a built in bench seat, lovely dining table, and full cooking facilities, dishwasher, microwave, Nespresso coffee machine too. A 2 day breakfast hamper is included in your stay, so no need to go anywhere, just hide away! Wifi? Of course. Television of course. T
