This charming cottage is perfect for a multigenerational family reunion, sleeping eight guests across four bedrooms, with the super king-size bedroom able to be made into a twin room, easily adaptable for many different party make-ups. With a spacious living room and further cosy snug, careful consideration has been given to the social and practical requirements of those on group holidays. After a day canoeing the River Wye or exploring the surrounding villages, the young can curl up to watch a film in the snug, whilst older members catch up in the lounge, before reuniting for a relaxed family meal.

With large windows and a light palette working together to create bright interiors, this cottage is both spacious and cosy, and perfect for family and friends to enjoy whatever the time of year. Splashes of colour in the soft furnishings, quirkily patterned bedding and artwork hung on the walls add character making this a lovely home from home. Admire the views before stepping into this traditional cottage, with the snug offering a warm welcome with comfortable sofas fronting the wood burner, the perfect space for grabbing a moment of solitude. The contemporary kitchen/diner is striking with black worktops and white cabinets and is ideal for sociable meal preparation. Gather in the lounge to enjoy a good movie or perhaps play a game on the Xbox, before eating together at the large dining table, opening the French doors to the garden in warm weather. Completing the ground floor is a shower room with shower and WC: here you will also find a utility area, ideal for eight pairs of outdoor shoes! Upstairs, find four charming bedrooms: two double rooms, a twin bedroom and a super king-size zip-and-link, and a family bathroom. Outside, gardens surround the cottage and there is a brick BBQ and seating area where you can dine alfresco admiring the views. There is off-road parking for two cars.
