offers a warm and inviting feel throughout, blending traditional cottage
features with quirky and individual touches. From stripped pine floors and
latch doors to feature fireplaces and stunning countryside views, the property

Rear Garden
The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the standout features of Blue Row Cottages. From the kitchen you step into a charming courtyard area complete with a handmade Mexican-themed barbecue, ideal for summer entertaining.
Beyond this are several useful outbuildings and sheds, including the wonderful “Hobbit House” — a delightful timber cabin complete with pine bunk beds, pine cladding and electricity, creating a magical hideaway for visiting grandchildren or guests, with an additonal room with toilet and hand wash basin.
Further along, the garden opens beautifully into a large lawned area bordered by mature planting and established shrubs, creating a peaceful and private setting. At the very end of the garden sits a stunning pergola draped in seasonal flowering plants and blossom, offering the perfect place to unwind with a glass of wine at the end of the day.
Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the charm, character and wonderful gardens this unique cottage has to offer.
