The living area has a superb contemporary gas log-effect fire at one end, as well as bright, modern, high quality sofas and there is underfloor heating throughout. The dining table is polished antique teakroot which is over 1000 years old, and the kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with integral appliances and generously proportioned cupboards.

At the rear of the cottage is a large decked area. Here, there is a top of the range Blue Whale spa hot tub for up to six people. There are high quality reclining sun loungers and seats, and at the far end the owners have built a superb summerhouse with bar stools, coffee tables and chairs, as well as a bar area with a range of wines, spirits, beers and mixers, payable via an honesty box. There is also an American-style fridge/freezer in the summerhouse which has a water filter and ice maker. It is an ideal spot to sit and enjoy the incredible views across uninterrupted hills to the sea clearly visible beyond.
