Get away from the stresses of modern life at Gore Cottage where there is no television because of poor reception and no signal for mobile phones either! There is an ordinary phone at Gore. West Milton is a conservation area in an "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" and Gore Cottage is listed as being a "Building of Special Architectural Interest Grade II".

The cottage is stone built with a thatched roof and porch and stands in its own secluded garden on the edge of the village. It sleeps up to five guests plus a cot in two upstairs double rooms - one has a double bed and the other has two singles. There is a single room downstairs which is the room with the telephone. The compact bathroom has a full sized bath and basin. There is a separate WC and washbasin downstairs. The kitchen is large enough to eat in and the separate living room features a multi-fuel stove. There is another WC in the thatched garden shed.

At the end of the lane there is a garage and parking for a second car; the cottage is reached via a walk of about 100 yards along the footpath, across the footbridge over a stream.

The electricity - light, heating and hot water - is included in the rent.
There is a telephone for out going and incoming calls.
