Prospect House, built in 1836, comprises two properties. The owners live in the front part - originally the village tailor's home. The back part was the tailor's workshop but has now been lovingly converted into a delightful holiday home.
The Prospect House holiday flat has its own entrance and comprises a large double bedroom, a huge living/dining/kitchen area (with a sofa bed) and a bathroom. There is plenty room for a travel cot or an additional camp bed (both of which can be supplied for a small extra charge). Prospect House has a garden which extends over one third of an acre - including a huge decking area. Guests are welcome to make themselves at home
