Step inside and you'll find a cosy front living room complete with a wood-burning stove – perfect for snuggling up on chilly evenings. The solid wood floors and traditional wooden doors add to the cottage charm. From here, head through to the real heart of the home – a beautifully spacious kitchen/diner. This is a proper country kitchen, featuring cream-painted shaker-style units (and loads of cupboard space), an AGA (gas hob/electric ovens), and French doors opening straight out onto a sunny, Indian stone-paved courtyard garden with raised beds and space to sit, sip, and soak up the atmosphere. There's even an outbuilding for extra storage ideal for a bike or garden tools.

Upstairs, the main double bedroom has in built wardrobes and sits to the front looking out to glorious countryside views. A second single bedroom overlooks the rear courtyard garden – an ideal guest room, nursery, or home office. The modern shower room has a generous walk-in shower, basin and WC decorated with neutral tiling.

Head up again and you'll find a converted loft room – this is not officially a bedroom due to restricted head height, but a fabulous bonus space for hobbies, reading, or just relaxing. There's plenty of eaves storage up here too.

The cottage is fully double-glazed and heated by a Vaillant combi boiler as well as the wood burner.  

With its mix of character features and practical modern touches, Strawberry Cottage really is one of those homes that just feels right.   Holiday home vibes with all the comfort of home – come and see it for yourself!
