The property is well known locally as it was once the most productive business in the village when it was successfully run as a thriving tea rooms attracting visitors both locally and from farther a field including coach parties and ramblers. The property is currently utilised as a comfortable family home with the ability to provide a useful income through seasonal holiday letting and a small scale bed & breakfast. The two holiday cottages, namely Buzzard's Roost and Deer's Leap provide the bulk of the income and currently (by choice of the owners) are open for bookings for between 20 & 25 per annum. During this period the cottages book very fully with many repeat bookings year on year. The cottages could easily be marketed for longer to generate a larger number of bookings if required.

The charming character accommodation dates back several hundred years and has a wealth of period features. The property is accessed via an entrance lobby which has glazed double doors leading into the lounge and a stripped pine latched style door to a cloakroom/w.c. which is large enough to incorporate a shower cubicle if required.

The extension was built to a high specification and includes more than the required insulation, bespoke hardwood double glazed windows and underfloor heating from the main central heating system. The dining room, which is a triple aspect room enjoying extensive rural views has double doors leading onto the front sun terrace and an ash open tread staircase which leads to the first floor galleried double bedroom which has a modern en suite shower room. At the rear of the cottage there is a useful lobby area with understairs store and a covered rear utility area which houses a Worcester condensing combination boiler for the central heating and hot water and a tumble dryer.
