Positioned in a tranquil and totally private setting, Stables Cottage is a beautifully converted former stable yard located on a working farm, set in 80 acres of grassland and woodland. The open-plan living space includes a large bespoke country kitchen, with a sociable breakfast bar, leading into the cosy sitting room with a wood burning stove and dining area. For those who need to work whilst away from home or the office, there is excellent WiFi and data streaming throughout the cottage. The flat screen television offers smooth connectivity for Netflix and other services. Outside, enjoy the garden with its sun deck, garden furniture and barbecue. After a hearty breakfast, pull on your boots and explore the very special woodland walk. You will be amazed by the flora, fauna and simple beauty of a wood that has been hardly touched for hundreds of years. Listen out for woodpeckers and watch buzzards and red-kites soaring above you. Various deer and badgers make their homes around the farm. Bluebells, wild garlic, primroses and other wild flowers carpet the floor of the wood amongst ferns and mossy boughs of fallen trees. See how hazel stems have been coppiced for hundreds of years to supply traditional crafts and industries such as hedge-laying and charcoal making. After an enjoyable day outdoors, you can relax and unwind in the cosy sitting room or play a board game before dinner.
