Other things to note
While the house is completed, the wider site is still under phased construction. You may notice building activity elsewhere on the estate, but this should not affect your stay. The estate is a former quarry, and the terrain can be muddy, so we recommend bringing wellies or suitable walking shoes if you plan to explore the surroundings.
The location
The house is located in the Cookswood development spanning over 400 acres and set to encompass over 100 homes. As of 2024, approximately 30 homes have been completed. As the site is still under development some areas may be restricted due to the ongoing work. The house is located in a completed cluster with no active construction near by however you may see and hear some work happening in other areas of the site but this should not impact your stay
It is important to note that the nature of the site, being an old quarry, can be muddy if you go walking. Guests are advised to come prepared with wellies or suitable footwear.
The house also has parking up to 4 cars. 2 cars can be parked at the house and 2 to be parked at reception.
