Smugglers Cottage is a charming Grade II listed thatched cottage dating back to the 17th Century, located in the heart of a much sought-after village and conveniently positioned just up the foot path from the secluded beach at Ayrmer Cove. The cottage offers an immense amount of character, with many original and period features throughout. The accommodation is generously proportioned with most of the rooms enjoying a fine aspect over the beautiful gardens and rural surroundings.
From the quiet no through lane leading to Arymer Cove the property is accessed via large timber gates opening into a parking area for several vehicles. The front door opens into a sizable entrance porch, perfect for sandy boots and dogs after a walk on the beach. From here a door opens into a welcoming dining room with a log burning stove, and a fine display of period features with ample space for family dining and entertaining. The characterful sitting room has a light and airy feel, with dual aspect views, a cosy fireplace with a log burning stove and French doors leading out to the garden. The kitchen has a traditional farmhouse feel, with a range of matching units incorporating solid oak surfaces and space for appliances. At the rear of the kitchen a small staircase gives access to a delightful guest bedroom with en-suite shower room. Also, on the ground floor and accessed from a rear hall, there is a family bathroom with separate shower. The main open staircase in the dining room leads to two further double bedrooms including a good size master bedroom with en-suite bathroom.
OUTSIDE
The secluded cottage garden sweeps around the property and is mainly laid to lawn with an abundance of mature plantings and trees. The garden incorporates an attractive stone building and a pretty summerhouse which is currently used as an occasional bedroom and has power and light.
