Outside Description

The pretty garden is private and not overlooked, containing a fabulous 7-birth hot tub next to the summerhouse. The south-west facing patio is furnished and contains a BBQ and chiminea for balmy summer evenings. The garden is enclosed but not secure, so whilst every effort has been made to secure the garden, the owners nor Coquet Cottages can take responsibility for the garden not being fully secure.

Downstairs Description
