Shortflatt Farm Cottage is a characterful property in a stunning, rural location surrounded by farm fields and with access to a private lake. The beautiful country views make for a relaxing break while the walled garden is perfect for those wanting to bring a dog. Hiking, cycling and nature enthusiasts will all find Shortflatt Farm Cottage the ideal holiday spot at any time of the year. Guests step in to the kitchen with a handy adjoining utility room which is the perfect place to leave the coats and wellies after a long country walk. The kitchen is well-stocked for a self-catering stay with all the equipment and amenities to cook up a feast. It has the added advantage of a dishwasher and a washing machine/tumble dryer too. The large dining room (seats six) and living rooms are downstairs along with the shower room and WC. The living room has a large log burner which will guests will enjoy in the cooler autumn and winter evenings. The cottage sleeps four people in two bedrooms which are both found upstairs. Please note that the staircase is rather steep so may not be suitable for anyone with restricted mobility. The master bedroom has a kingsized bed whilst the second bedroom is a twin with the beds nestled in the eaves. The family bathroom can also be found upstairs. All rooms enjoy countryside views from the windows. Outside, the lawned garden is enclosed and there is a patio area with table, chairs and a BBQ (gas provided). Shortflatt Farm Cottage also has the incredible bonus of its own private lake - just a short walk from the cottage. The short walk from the cottage is down a grassy lane, so not in the immediate vicinity to be a worry around small children - although, they should be supervised at all times. Private, off-road parking is available in front of the cottage.
