This is an enchanting, beautifully restored, semi-detached country cottage, tucked deep in the countryside.

Postmans Cottage is a delight to the eye, decorated and furnished with excellent taste and with every comfort in mind. The rear garden is a perfect sun trap. A welcoming tea is provided on arrival.
