Welcome to The property, a charming and characterful one bedroom cottage nestled away in the traditional village of Roxton. The home offers a perfect tranquil retreat for couples where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The picturesque, thatched roof cottage has been lovingly furnished, blending original features with modern comforts. Step into the cosy living room showcasing traditional exposed beams around the original fireplace. Guests can enjoy plush seating with Smart TV and Wi-Fi included during your stay, creating the perfect space to relax and unwind. The well-equipped kitchen provides all the amenities you need to prepare delicious meals, including hob, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, and dining area. Head up the original cottage stairs to the king size bedroom, a haven of tranquility for two. The property has one ground floor modern bathroom just off the kitchen, with a large, luxurious shower, basin, and WC. Arguably the best feature of the cottage is outside. The large patio and lawned wrap around garden provide an idyllic setting to start your day with a morning cup of coffee or unwind in the evening with a glass of wine. The countryside surrounding Roxton is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. Discover scenic walking trails, ideal for... both casual strolls and more challenging hikes. You can also enjoy cycling routes that take you through the picturesque landscapes and offer breath-taking views. Just a short distance from the cottage, Roxton Abbey is a magnificent country estate with beautifully manicured gardens. Explore the grounds, take in the stunning architecture, and learn about the history of this grand estate. Please note the fireplace is for decorative use only. On-street parking is available to the front of the property.
