The cottage is well appointed with a large kitchen including dishwasher and microwave and the living area has a slow combustion wood fire to keep you warm and cozy in the winter while enjoying a glass of red or cup of hot chocolate. The cottage also has ducted air conditioning to keep you cool in the summer. The large outdoor area includes a gas barbeque and outdoor dining as well as a long bench with bar stools where you can just sit, watch the cows grazing and enjoy the scenery.
