Entering the railway cottage, you are welcomed into a charming lounge and dining room that pays homage to the golden era of rail travel. Infused with creative touches reminiscent of a railway museum, the room boasts a dining area perfect for unhurried breakfasts and leisurely dinners. Two sofas, including one that converts into a sofa bed, are strategically placed beneath the window, offering a cosy spot to watch trains arrive at the station amidst puffs of steam. The ambiance is further enhanced by the wood burner, ensuring a warm and inviting atmosphere. Enjoy a relaxed evening of board games, cards or read a good book. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare a hearty breakfast or evening meal. The nostalgic charm extends to the bedrooms, with the master bedroom overlooking the railway line and offering a double bed and en suite shower room. The second bedroom provides twin beds and faces the rear of the property. Both bedrooms are equipped with a TV and USB sockets. At the end of the hallway, a spacious and modern shower room awaits, complete with a double walk-in shower, heated towel rail, and shaver socket.
Outside the former station master's cottage, there is complimentary parking for one car. A secluded patio at the rear provides an intimate setting for morning coffee or sundowners. With seating, it's an ideal spot to unwind.
