The property is approached by a private and gated drive (hardcore track) which is shared with two other dwellings, the last four hundred yards is steep, as the drive drops down into the valley to give the wonderful views enjoyed from the back of the cottage.  

A good supply of logs will be provided.  Additional logs are available in the adjoining barn, for which there will be a charge of £20.

Up to two well behaved dogs are welcome by prior arrangement and for a supplementary fee of £12 per dog. The garden is enclosed with stock fencing but an adventurous dog could get out. There is likely to be livestock in nearby fields, so please keep dogs under control.

Please do not pre-order groceries online for delivery, the access lane is not suitable for delivery lorries. There is an excellent, well stocked, mini-supermarket (petrol also available) 3 miles away at Wheddon Cross, and a Co-op in Dulverton (6 miles), both of which are open exceptionally long hours.
