The bathroom has been fitted with a white suite that includes a separate bath, a shower cubicle,
wash hand basin and a low-level WC as well as a rear aspect window. The recently constructed staircase leads to a large triple window, attic room that spans the width of the two cottages and is a fabulous space with a wealth of character features resulting in a beautiful light and airy room with plentiful space.
