The entrance door open directly into the downstairs living room, with wood-burner, comfortable sofa, TV and tea/coffee making facilities (there are no cooking facilities so this cottage is best suited to guests who are looking to eat out). The stairs lead up to the first floor, please note that this is an old cottage, so the stairs are fairly steep and curving, there is a hand rail on one side. Upstairs the double bedroom and shower room are located, and lovely views towards the moor can be enjoyed.
