Description
Set deep in the heart of the forest, this cottage has been completely modernised.
It is spacious, comfortable in all seasons (central heating and log-burning stoves), welcoming to disabled people (one of the owners uses a wheelchair), families, pets, and older people all in a way that respects the environment.
We have been awarded four stars, Mobility 2 by Visit Britain, and a gold rating by Green Tourism Business Scheme.
There is one bedroom downstairs with wet-room, and two upstairs with shared bathroom, and a generous living room with folding glass doors opening onto decking and a large garden.
On this site you will find all of the information you will need about the accommodation, location, bookings and activities.
Originally one of a pair of forester’s cottages, set deep in the forest but only half a mile from Yorkley village with two shops, a Health Centre and bus stop.
No 2 has been in the hands of the same family since 1976. Recently a complete rehabilitation was undertaken, including the addition of an entirely new (6m x6m) living/dining room and an accessible bedroom with en-suite.
Great attention has been paid to using sustainable materials and to minimising the carbon footprint of the building and its usage. One of the owners is a wheelchair user; the cottage is accessible to those who need help with mobility.
The cottage has a double bedroom and a twin bedded room upstairs, sharing a bathroom, and a double bedroom downstairs with an accessible wet room en-suite containing shower, wc and hand basin.
A folding shower stool and various grab rails are fitted and there are a washing machine and ironing facilities in an alcove. The upstairs bathroom has a full size bath with shower over, a hand basin and wc.
