About this property

Romantic 1890s Stone Cottage - 1 Acre Retreat

  • Take a step back in time in this beautifully appointed 1890's cottage. The venue has been tastefully decorated, paying homage to the period it was built, whilst having all the mod cons to make your stay cozy and relaxing.

    The venue makes an ideal abode for wedding accommodation, that special event, or just to escape reality for a time and get lost in those old world vibes.

    The evergreen gardens are great for a stroll, photography or even some yard games that are on hand. Or simply just be!
