Description
Despite being a cottage, the living room has high ceilings and a sense of grandeur. There is an amazing view from the lounge and both bedrooms where we love to watch the spectacular sun rises, hot air balloons floating by or the fireworks over Bristol and beyond.
When the weather allows, we enjoy having sundowners on the roof terrace or morning coffee in the courtyard with the scent of jasmine and the relaxing sound of the water feature in our low maintenance garden.
