About this property
Buff Lodge - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms
Tackley is a thriving place of traditional stone cottages and a community-led village shop which provides all manner of lovely things. Buff Lodge sits in a quiet courtyard behind one of these lovely village houses and offers a wonderful base from which to explore.
Step inside and you'll find a comfortable escape for four guests. The open-plan design makes for sociable living, with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area and generous living room on the ground floor. Double doors lead out to a private, enclosed terrace where you can enjoy meals in the fresh air or simply relax with a drink and a good book. There is a super-king bedroom on the ground floor, as well as a bathroom whilst the second king-size bedroom is on the first floor, along with an en-suite shower room. This lovely room boasts high ceilings and exposed beams and is a cosy and welcoming space.
The enclosed terrace is an added bonus, and the screened trellis ensures this is a sunny and private space where you can relax after a day of exploring. There is private parking for two cars in the courtyard.
Ground Floor
There are two steps into the entrance hall which in turn leads to the main open-plan kitchen, dining and living area as well as a bedroom and bathroom.
Open-Plan Kitchen/Dining/Living Room:
The well-equipped kitchen has everything practical needed for a self-catering holiday including a full oven and hob, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher along with useful small appliances. There's a four-seater pedestal dining table where you can linger over breakfast and enjoy evening meals, whilst the living room features two comfortable sofas and a Smart TV, so you can stream your favourite shows. From the living room, there are doors out to the terrace.
Bedroom One:
This ground floor bedroom has a super-king size bed, which can be arranged as twin beds if preferred. With a colour scheme of cream and grey, this room has a very peaceful feel. There is plenty of storage space including a wardrobe and chest of drawers, and bedside tables with reading lamps are placed on either side of the bed. Perfect for a little bedtime reading. There is natural light from two windows.
Bathroom:
Soak away the day in the bath (no shower), there is also a hand basin, WC, and a mirror with a light and a shaver point.
First Floor
Bedroom Two:
The second bedroom is on the first floor and is a beautiful room with high ceilings, wooden beams, and an old original door, which opens with a Juliette balcony. There's a king-size bed, single wardrobe, chest of drawers and night table with reading lamps.
En-suite:
The en-suite features a shower, hand basin and WC, along with a mirror with a light and shaver point.
Outside
From the living area, there are doors out to the private terrace. Here you'll find two wicker chairs, perfect for a coffee in the sunshine. There is also a gravel patio with a six-seater dining table, chairs and a parasol.
