1/10 Exterior
The traditional bricks and timber, old chimneys and tiny windows of this 17th-century timber-framed cottage give it bags of character.

The front door opens into the hall. A warm welcome is created at the entrance with a lantern and freshly collected foliage from the fields and hedgerows.
3/10 Hall
Whitewashed walls and wooden beams create a lovely spot for the welcoming Christmas tree.
