Good to know

The Ferns has been fully renovated and is a bright, airy apartment despite it's size. The open plan living area spans the full width of the front of the property and the bedroom spans the full width at the rear. Nestled in the middle is the hallway which leads to the bathroom and to the laundry room. There is a large partly lawned shared garden to the rear.. KITCHEN: The kitchen is fully equipped with an electric oven, electric hob, microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge. There is a range of pots, pans, baking trays, utensils, cutlery, crockery and glassware to cover most needs. LIVING AREA: The living area has a 32 inch tv equipped with a Roku stick so you can watch all your usual streaming subscriptions (you will need your own streaming accounts) or you can watch the inbuilt freeview channels. There are blankets to snuggle up in which can be found in the picnic hamper if you fancy a cosy movie evening and a sideboard houses a few fun games you are welcome to play along with a bluetooth speaker. There's a fold down table and 2 stools where you can enjoy your own home cooked meals with perhaps a nice glass of chilled wine. HEATING: The apartment is heated by gas central heating and via a Nest thermostat which is located in the lounge area so you can be in control of the temperature of the apartment. Fibre broadband means that streaming movies, music or games is a breeze. BEDROOM: Enjoy a peaceful night's sleep in the spacious bedroom which overlooks the rear garden. The double bed is equipped with a 1000 pocket sprung encapsulated foam top mattress and 600 thread count Egyptian Cotton bedding. Extra pillows are available and thermal blackout curtains ensure you wont be woken up by the sunshine. A nightstand at either side of the bed is provided along with some hot water bottles, phone chargers and a hairdryer. There are bedside lamps and mood lighting strips if you enjoy relaxing in bed with a book. A double wardrobe with hangers and drawers gives you somewhere to store your clothing and a large 8ft x 4ft mirror throws light around the room. There's a reading nook with comfortable chair, footstool and a few good books to get you started along with a foldaway desk, chair and some basic stationary if you need to do any last minute work. BATHROOM: The bathroom is located in the centre of the apartment and has an electric shower and ample shelving for your own toiletries. Shampoo, conditioner and shower gel are provided along with bath towels, hand towels and face cloths. A separate laundry room houses a washing machine, clothes dryer, iron, ironing board and vacuum cleaner as well as somewhere to hang your coats and store muddy shoes. GARDEN: The garden is to the rear of the property and has a washing line you are welcome to use, a little peace garden under the bedroom window you can use for reflection and a lawn to the rear along with a small bistro seating set. Please note that the garden is shared with the apartment upstairs. PARKING: There is ample on-street parking available outside the apartment but if you prefer, parking is available at the bottom of the driveway next door. This driveway is owned by my dad. Access is needed to the building at the top of the driveway so please park tucked in to the gable end of the little white house at the front as much as possible so that access is still available for cars driving up to the building at the top. PETS AND CHILDREN: Unfortunately the apartment is unsuitable for Pets and children under 12. Short Term License Number: EA00013F

Other Details to Note

Please note that the apartment is situated on the main road of the village. A video doorbell is located on the outside door of the apartment. There are no security cameras or listening devices located inside the apartment.

Quite easy to find, with some off street parking. Hazel had the heating on for my arrival, which was very much appreciated. Nice decor throughout the flat, with everything needed for a short stay. ( with lots of thoughtful touches) Very comfortable bed, and a nice shower. Highly recommended. The parking was a bit tricky for my large car, but I managed.

It was so cute and cozy. Not just aesthetically pleasing. Comfy bed and couch. Beautiful tub with hot ready-to-go water. Pretty garden out back. Public transit was a tiny bit tricky so hiring a taxi was a better option for us. I was fine with it but my niece likes a little more convenience.

Hazel is a wonderful host, this is our second stay at The Ferns and cannot recommend highly enough. Wonderful, comfy cozy and well equipped home full of thoughtful touches and immaculately furnished. Thanks again!

Very clean, well decorated and there was everything you could need. Very homely and warm. Easy to get in and so cheap for what it is. Very quiet and loved the little touches of emergency supplies in the bathroom through to the breakfast items laid out for us and the books and stationary supplies. nothing it was perfect.

A cosy accommodation full of personality! Thoughtfully decorated with a welcoming vibe, it offered a comfortable bed, plush pillows, and a relaxing sofa. The kitchenette was well-equipped, and the fast Wi-Fi and TV made downtime enjoyable. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the host was exceptionally friendly and helpful. A delightful stay from start to finish. The only downside was the location, which could be more appealing
