About this property

The lovely open plan living area has a high raftered ceiling, wooden floors and full height picture windows and patio doors which allow the sun to flood in, giving the cottage its name. The cottage has level access, wide doorways and a walk-in shower, making it a suitable choice for guests with limited mobility. In addition to the double bedroom, a sofa bed is provided in the lounge. Sunnyside, set in one and a half acres of grounds, including gardens, woodland, a summer house and stream, all of which you are welcome to use.
