All on the ground floor, this contemporary cottage caters to a variety of group needs, providing an overall memorable experience for each and every guest.

Make your way into the kitchen/diner where you can enjoy all of your mealtimes, with plenty of space for the chef of the group to prepare a tasty treat with the assistance of the wonderful appliances at hand, while the rest of the group gather around the table and toast to a wonderful holiday to come.

Discover two elegant king sized bedrooms to end your day in, both boasting their own televisions so you can watch your favourite shows from the comfort of the covers, while one bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite shower room, with the family bathroom being of equal delight.
