Upstairs, two en suite bedrooms filled with natural light await guests, offering stunning views of the surrounding area through large windows and skylights.
Outside, a beautifully landscaped garden with a sheltered patio area leads to an elevated lawned space with views of Penhill in the background. The hot tub is set at the perfect temperature for guests to relax and unwind, regardless of the weather. The cottage itself has a rich history, originally serving as a reading room for the men of West Witton Village in the 1860s. Though women were not allowed at the time, the open plan layout and dual fireplaces remain an inviting feature of the property, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the village's past through a book about its history found on the bookcase.
