Description

Toad Hall is one, of two, of our largest cottages with 4 bedrooms. Formerly a threshing barn this fabulous two storey property contains 2 shower rooms, 1 ensuite bathroom and a large living/dining area. Toad Hall would suit a large family or two families wishing to holiday together.

Through the double windows which used to be the former cart openings Toad Hall has lovely views of the surrounding courtyards, where you can relax on the patio and use the BBQ.

There is an open plan living and dining area, which is spacious and contains a sofa bed so you have the option of sleeping 8.

There is a partitioned fully equipped kitchen which is fitted with an electric cooker, induction hob, microwave, fridge & dishwasher and a there is also a ground floor WC and shower room.

The furnished master bedroom has a king size bed with pocket sprung mattress and an ensuite bathroom.

The remaining three furnished bedrooms consist of two single rooms and one twin.

On the first floor landing there is also another TV for you to enjoy, which faces a cosy sofa.

Please note: Due to the nature of this conversion the upstairs area has three low level roof trusses which are 1.7 meters high and a 1.6 meter doorway. Despite this the rooms remain spacious with ample headroom.

Each cottage benefits from underfloor heating, flat screen TV’s, bluetooth sound system, and free WIFI.

“Way above our expectations!”

Reviewed 15 Oct 2018

As four writers, Toad Hall was the MOST perfect retreat place. The quality of the fixtures and fittings were top notch. The ensuite bedroom was fabulous! Didn't want to leave. The bath in the ensuite was amazing! So much better than mine at home! LOL! Beds incredibly comfortable with lovely quality pillows! Sofas really comfy. Very roomy, bright and airy living space. There was nothing that we wanted and couldn't find! Toad Hall WAY exceeded our expectations. We were very lucky that the weather allowed us to sit outside too. We didn't actually go anywhere as we were there for a purpose which was to write but it was absolutely perfect. I will be coming back for sure with friends but also with my family. Perfect place to stay! Absolutely LOVED it!

“Lovely toad hall”

Reviewed 2 Jan 2017

We had Superb time here at toad hall! It was brilliant value for money. It was such good quality and had everything you could want there, even little things that you could potentially need. Everyone that stayed said how lovely it was and what a good find it was. It has a great mix of the original features of the property and new modern decoration and fittings. The complex was so nice and was secure as it was gated. I couldn't find one fault with our stay here! Toad hall is lovely and I definitely would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in this area!

It was lovely cottage with superb facilities ...the only problem we had was the noise. As it was a new cottage everything could be heard upstairs and in the neighbouring rooms. Loved the modern under floor heating. Was clean and comfortable.
