With its stone walls and beams, this 200-year-old cottage combines character with a modern finish. It's situated in a quiet no-through lane but is only a two-minute walk into Stow with its shops, cafes, pubs, and restaurants. It also benefits from private off-road parking for 2 cars. It's the perfect place for a spot of quiet relaxation with all the conveniences on your doorstep. The space The Pippins are named after the apple tree that stands proudly at the entrance to the property. The pretty garden is at the front but is still very private. It is south-facing and so benefits from the sun all day, with a table and chairs for alfresco dining along with a charcoal BBQ. There are 2 sun loungers available from April to October. There is also a rear courtyard which again is set for outdoor dining with a table and 4 chairs. The entrance leads straight into the beautiful dining area and kitchen with its stone walls and old bread oven. It has an old pine table and chairs for four. The modernized kitchen comprises a kettle and toaster, electric oven and gas hob, microwave, dishwasher, and fridge freezer as well as all cooking utensils and crockery, etc. Next door is the cozy living room with paneled walls and a stone fireplace housing a wood-burner-style gas fire. There are two comfy sofas, a Smart TV, and a DVD player. The rear hall has a coat rack and cupboard for games/books and this leads to the winding staircase. Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms which overlook the garden. The larger of these rooms has a Superking bed which can be split into 2 single beds if required (please let me know at the time of booking).
