Home from home!” "We had a great holiday and would recommend the house" Wilson Cottage owes its name to Richard Wilson, Victor Meldrew in ‘One Foot in the Grave’, which was filmed here. Victor Meldrew’s house was located just around the corner, and this cottage is featured in the 1991 One Foot in The Grave Christmas Special, covered in snow. During the extensive restoration and refurbishment works the whole roof was removed, along with many interior walls, the back wall taken down and the house extended on both floors, doubling the floorspace on the ground floor, meanwhile the front elevation was restored to it’s former glory, wooden sliding sash windows reinstated and the whole exterior repointed as well as a new roof built. The contemporary design of the rebuild and extension is reflected throughout the interiors, with large open plan spaces, full width sliding/folding doors to the garden, contemporary open fireplace and reclaimed timber floorboards throughout. The kitchen/dining/living space has plenty of space for a family group to dine all together at the table.

At one end of the room is the kitchen, which has fitted units with granite work surfaces and a freestanding Ikea stainless steel kitchen unit providing ample work surfaces and storage. There is a wide range cooker with a single very large oven, a built-in stainless steel american fridge and freezer, integrated dishwasher and washer. The base and wall units house all the cooking and dining equipment needed for your break. The lounge space at the other end has sliding/ folding doors to the deck, and open garden area. The lounge has a contemporary fireplace, television, with large settees facing each other so everyone can socialise and relax together.
