Acquired by the owners over 20 years ago, this property now comes onto the market due to impending retirement. The property was a cottage but has been developed into a character 5-bedroom owners cottage with two en-suites plus a guest bathroom, as well as the tea room, commercial kitchen, preparation room and reception servery.
The lounge is located upstairs and enjoys the scenery of the surrounding countryside. The cottage is served by a well-equipped commercial kitchen. The lawned enclosed tea garden has 18 picnic tables with ample seating outside. The dry stone walling acts as a windbreak, with the trees within the garden bent to reflect the wind's direction and offering some shade from the summer sun, All of this is in keeping with the rocky scenery of the valley. The cottage has oil-fired radiator central heating and enjoys views to the west, where the setting sunsets can be enjoyed and to the east, views of the quintessential English cricket games can be seen. There is an enclosed yard and store, plus access to rear parking for the owner.
