The well-equipped kitchen offers a home-from-home feel and the inviting sitting room boasts a warming woodburner, perfect for snuggling up in the evenings with a glass of wine. Outside your quaint Knocklong cottage, you have a courtyard garden to the front and a lawn and patio garden to the rear with furniture and a BBQ area, ideal for those sunny days when you feel like making the most of the sunshine and dining alfresco or simply enjoy the peace and quiet with a cup of tea and a good book.
