Squire Cottage is an old farmhouse built half in stone and half in timber and render with a smattering of red brick! It sits at the top of a field looking down towards the River Redlake and the Dingle with its babbling brook and ancient wet woodland.

The cottage sleeps four people comfortably in two bedrooms; a cot and an airbed are also available for extra family members. The front door opens onto one open space with a large inglenook fireplace complete with bread oven, dominating the ‘living’ end of the room.  Here you can sit around the open fire telling stories, reading, listening to music or watching television.  At the other end, there is a fully equipped kitchen with hand built oak units and a large refectory table. There is also a small cloakroom with lavatory and washbasin and room for wellies and boots.

The cottage keeps it’s ancient authenticity and rural feel by retaining the old beams complete with redundant peg holes through which the children can spy on their parents! New oak flooring with rugs and mats add to the cosy and comfortable feel of the place; though watch your heads, some of the doorways are very low.

There is central heating and hot water provided by an oil-fired boiler, but please don’t expect hotel-type temperatures in Squire Cottage, it is an old building with all the characteristics of such a building! Bed linen and towels are included in the price as are logs for the fire and all the electricity.  As there is no mobile signal here, there is a telephone in the farmhouse should you really need to use one. A cot is available and children and pets are welcome.
