This delightful cottage is beautifully situated in a lovely peaceful woodland setting.
Hodge Howe Cottage is one of a pair of early 20th century cottages reached down a long lane on a private fifteen acre woodland estate.
The cottage offers a high standard of comfort and facilities in any season.
The natural undisturbed gardens are visited by a lovely selection of birds, deer, squirrels, foxes, rabbits and badgers - quiet watchers will be well rewarded.
The property is ideally located for either a relaxing or a touring holiday and there are lovely walks from the door to Orrest Head, Troutbeck or to Miller Ground and a good pub at Troutbeck Bridge about ten minutes walk away.
It is hard to imagine that you could be in such a quiet rural setting and yet be so handy for all amenities.
Accommodation: Front door into entrance hallway leading to ground floor bedroom and sitting room.
The delightful cosy sitting room has feature beams and fireplace with a multi-fuel burning stove ,TV with Freesat/Freeview, DVD, CD/radio.
A door leads through to the fully fitted kitchen which in turn gives access to the dining room - this is a delightful addition to the house with its floor to ceiling windows and interesting roof lines.
