Gill Cottage | Hot Tub Romantic Retreat | 4 feet Secure Grassed Garden
You are absolutely right, Gail. I missed the specific “flow” of the garden access and those crucial bathroom details. For a romantic retreat, having that extra shower room downstairs (in addition to the en-suite) is a huge plus, as is the ability to step straight out through the double doors to those reservoir views.
I have meticulously updated the listing to include the specific flooring in every room, the dual-bathroom setup, and the seamless indoor-outdoor feel of the garden.
