Description from manager

Description

One of five beautifully crafted stone cottages built around a beautiful courtyard with water feature.

Beechnut is a firm favourite with artists, writers and creative people to unwind. This unusual and characterful cottage provides a haven to inspire.

Each room has its own unique and inviting character. Beneath the dovecote a weighty wooden door with wrought iron grille leads into the lobby. To the left is the bedroom with stone mullioned arched windows looking out onto the fields. A medieval styled arched door and stone passageway leads past an unusual Moroccan styled bathroom with spacious shower down into the light and airy living area and open plan fully equipped kitchen with seating.

A comfy sofa allows you to relax in front of the open Adobe style fireplace (This can also become a bed to accommodate an extra visitor or family member). Whitewashed walls and terracotta floor tiles and rugs throughout give a Mediterranean feel to this room. The high pitched ceilings, exposed beams also add to the ambiance with windows looking out onto the courtyard, where the morning sun streams in.

Every attention has been given to provide superior crafted, natural luxury for your pleasure. Visit England’s unique Gold awards are given in recognition of exceptional quality within a property’s star rating, or for outperforming a star rating. Beechnut comfortably outperforms.
