A beautifully converted 1800s cart house hidden at the end of a leafy farm track; this elegant country hideaway is the perfect romantic retreat for an outdoorsy couple. Pack a picnic and tackle the outstanding trail along the rugged gritstone ridge of The Roaches, before indulging in an al fresco feast on the secluded rear patio overlooking the hills. This charming cottage is brimming with character and features traditional exposed stonework walls, earthy leather and wood textures, and exposed beams. Step into the bright shaker-style kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows and crack open a cold drink while the resident chef prepares some well-earned snacks. Gather at the wooden dining table for an intimate meal for two then retreat to the rustic stone-clad lounge where you can sink onto the sofa and cuddle up with a movie on the TV. Ascend the wooden staircase to the romantic super-king-size bedroom with beamed ceilings and a stable door revealing a sleek en-suite shower room. Enjoy your morning coffee perched on the outdoor furniture with splendid country views while your furry friend plays in the enclosed garden.
