Owner's Description

Roe Deer Cottage is so named because these very elusive creatures are occasionally seen grazing in the field to the rear. Situated in the Stables Courtyard it benefits from the facilities that are found there including the laundry, games room and children's play area.

Downstairs in Roe Deer you'll find a comfortable sitting room with open fire, perfect for cosy evenings in. There is a colour television along with a selection of books and magazines. Across the hall is the spacious dining room, also with an open fire. The kitchen and pantry are at the rear of the cottage and come fully equipped. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, one double and one twin, both looking out over the courtyard. At the top of the stairs you'll find the family bathroom with bath with shower over, basin and WC.

There is also a small box room, which could take a chair to gaze at the stunning views over the countryside.

Roe Deer also has a telephone which takes incoming calls only on 01576 510404.

As with the other cottages, heating is by way of electric storage heaters with a back boiler assisted by an immersion heater for the water.
