You will also find a useful utility room on the ground floor.
On the first floor, you will find the well-equipped open plan kitchen and breakfast area with bench seating for seven guests, and here you can enjoy less formal meals such as breakfast or a snack lunch.

Access to the upper full-length balcony can be gained through the glazed double doors, where you can take in the expansive rural views across the tranquil mill stream. Completing the first floor accommodation is a double bedroom, with an en-suite bathroom leading off from a hallway, and a library area with a desk and well-stocked bookshelves - every book worm's dream.

A short stay for a few days. Nice property, very spacious and cosy for a winter break. Could use some TLC and a deep clean in places but on balance pleased with the choice. Located in a beautiful village, fantastic for access to places of interest.
The Old Piggeries is a beautiful, comfortable, clean, spacious house in a wonderful location with easy, walking access to a shop, two pubs & a beach with restaurant. It was absolutely ideal for our needs & we all wish we could have booked for a longer holiday. The box of goodies & milk were very much appreciated, thankyou.
