Stork Cottage – A little haven made for slow, relaxing escapes. There’s a gentle magic to Stork Cottage... tucked away in a peaceful corner of the countryside, it’s the kind of place where time seems to soften, the air feels calmer, and guests instantly settle in as though they’ve arrived somewhere familiar and cherished. We have many return visitors who describe it as a place they can’t wait to return to, and the warmth of their reviews says everything about how special this cottage feels. Push open the front door and step into a cosy vestibule where boots and coats find their place after long walks. Beyond it lies a bright, welcoming kitchen filled with everything you need for unhurried mornings and simple suppers - an electric oven and hob, air fryer, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The separate utility room keeps life easy with a washing machine and ironing facilities.
