From the owner

Stafford Cottage was built as a farm labourer's cottage in about 1750 and still retains many original features. It has two bedrooms (double bed and one single bed) to sleep three, kitchen, bathroom with bath and shower over bath, dining room and lounge (with double sofa bed which sleeps two). It has been tastefully refurbished keeping many of the old features, oak beams and a large inglenook which has a wood burning stove with a good supply of logs available for the winter months.
