This impressive cottage, exquisitely furnished, is perfect for families, friends and two faithful pups seeking a restful base for walking, cycling and discovering the natural beauty of the Black Country. The property lies on the outskirts of Wombourne, a bustling village with a charming village green and a choice of traditional inns and independent shops. For paws can lead the way along the route of the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal past the historic Bratch Locks and towards the Smestow Valley Local Nature Reserve (6.5 miles).
Enter this characterful waterside getaway into a spacious hallway through to the sleek, fully equipped kitchen, which features a central breakfast table and handy breakfast bar. The lovely dining room is perfect for enjoying a celebratory meal. Relax together in the bright and inviting lounge with ample seating and a Smart TV or sneak into the cosy snug to unwind in peace. On the lower ground floor, the beautiful sunroom is ideal for chats. Upstairs are four bedrooms: two king-size, one with an en-suite shower room, and the other overlooking the canal, a double with an en-suite shower room, and a family room with two king-size beds and three steps leading down to an en-suite shower room. A sleek family bathroom completes the interior features. Outside, younger guests and hounds can enjoy the large lawn, while you unwind on the patio and fire up the BBQ to enjoy dining alfresco. Off-road parking for three cars is available. The driveway is on a very steep slope with access alongside the canal and not recommended for large vehicles. Please supervise children and pets as access to the river at the bottom of the garden and the canal is unrestricted.
