Spacious living room inside Blackthorn Cottage

Spacious cottage for families and friends

The cottage has a double room with en-suite and a family suite consisting of a double room on the ground floor with adjacent bathroom and three single beds in a loft room upstairs.

The kitchen/sitting room is large and spacious and, when a number of cottages are let to the one group, provides an ideal venue for all to get together for meals or socialising.

It opens out through double doors to a patio area which, in good weather, can further extend the size of the meeting area. As with our other cottages it is equipped with a wood burning stove – a great focal point on evenings when you want to curl up in front of a warm fire.
