Veronica offers the best of both worlds: it has a traditional cottage type feel, but with plenty of space for the whole family and a delightful garden for the children to run around in. The entrance lobby has plenty of room for throwing off coats and wellies before you walk into the kitchen/diner. From there, the French doors lead out onto the patio and into the pretty garden – which you may well share with resident wildlife and our friendly ducks and chickens when they pop by to say hello.

There is a gas woodburner set into the feature stone fireplace and a big bay window which looks down the valley towards our woods and lake. It’s a cosy space to snuggle down to write your holiday postcards or finish that book you’ve been reading for ages.

The painted wood kitchen is equipped as home with everything you need to cook up a family feast or a holiday breakfast fry-up with built-in electric cooker with gas hob, and large retro fridge freezer.

Leading off the lounge is a lobby leading to the family bathroom with basin, toilet and bath with shower over. There are two bedrooms on the ground floor, the master bedroom with king size bed and Designers Guild bedding and a single room with 3ft bed and cot.

Upstairs is a further single bedroom with 3ft bed and a twin bedroom with 2 3ft single beds. These bedrooms share a separate shower room with basin and toilet.
