The Shippon Cottage

About this home

The cottage offers a calm retreat for two. Almost every wall, floor and surface is coloured white, or a shade of off-white, whilst strategically placed pieces of artwork offer interesting focal points.

The kitchen/dining area is open-plan and features an island work area for prepping, appliances including a double oven, hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, plus pots and pans.

There is also a dining table and chairs for two.

From the dining area, there are a few steps up to a mezzanine level where you’ll find the lounge which has a contemporary gas fire and a Smart TV with Freeview and Netflix built-in.

The cottage also features music control pads and Bluetooth technology so that you can play songs from your own collection, or stream music.

Your outdoor space is accessed via the French doors that lead to a patio with table and chairs, as well as a BBQ.

The bedroom has a super-king-size bed, a Smart TV and an en-suite bathroom that is very luxurious with not only a shower, but also a two-person bath and even a TV so that you can watch a movie whilst you take a long soak.

There is also space in the bedroom for a travel cot which makes the cottage a good option if you have a baby to bring along.

For nature-lovers, there’s a ‘nature spotter diary’ for noting sightings of wildlife, with a selection of bird and nature guides to-hand to help you identify species.

On a clear evening, we recommend requesting some stargazing equipment to be dropped off at the cottage, wrapping up warm and seeing what magical things you can spot in the night sky.
