The space

The old dairy cottage is a sympathetically converted dairy offering original features such as exposed beams.

The cottage dates back many centuries and is part of the most historical centre of the village. With the addition of modern features such as the hot tub, Netflix and Spotify.

The cottage offers a warm, cosy, romantic feel, perfect for couples looking to get away.

From the minute you enter the front door to the living room with the log burner stove, to the minute you lay your head on our pillows you’ll experience the comfort we have to offer.

Every detail of our cottage has been carefully thought out to offer our guests a relaxed stay.

We offer a welcome gift on arrival and all the basic necessities needed, oil, salt, tea bags, coffee for our Nespresso machine to washing up liquid, toilet roll and kitchen roll.

The living room offers a large sofa and a cuddle sofa perfect for cosy evenings in front of the fire or reading a book whilst you enjoy your tipple of choice.

We also offer Free WiFi, Netflix, Alexa and Spotify and dogs are welcome.

We require a minimum of 2 night stays.

The kitchen leads off the living room with all the utilities required for your stay, including an oven and a microwave. There is a dinning table which seats 4 people, cleverly handmade using reclaimed wood.

The kitchen leads to a private yard offering privacy from neighbours and a bistro set for alfresco dinning and a chiminea.

We have recently had a wood fired hot tub fitted which is for 2 people. Heats and fills up ready to be used with in the hour. If you wish to not have the hot tub included in your stay please drop us a message and we can send a discounted special offer.

The living room also leads to a downstairs shower room, with a walk in shower, toilet, quirky sink and original stone walls.

Our master bedroom is accessed via a solid wood stair case and offers the comfort of a four poster bed and a double ended Victoria and Albert roll top bath with traditional features.

There is a toilet and a sink located just off the bedroom.

The cottage offers fresh towels, bedding, and dressing gown for your stay as well as a welcome basket.

Other things to note

We don’t have many rules here, this is your space to enjoy how you will.

If you wish to book The Old Dairy without the hot tub, drop me a message and we can provide you with a discounted special offer.

But we do ask when you use the bath try not to splash water over the sides of the bath to avoid getting the bedroom carpet wet.

Please try and keep dogs off the furniture, although we know how sneaky they can be when you’re not looking and try not to break items as the cost of replacing these has to come from somewhere and we are trying to keep the cost of renting out our cottage reasonable for everyone.

The hot tub is there for your enjoyment but please respect the neighbours. Please read the instructions and rules thoroughly. This ensures a safe experience for guests and prevents any damage to the hot tub.
