DESCRIPTION
Ivythwaite and Ivythwaite Cottages have been developed by the present owners over the last few years creating two separate businesses operating a very highly rated bed & breakfast operation in the main house and an increasingly well established holiday letting business in the adjoining cottages, The Nook and The Cranny. Care has been taken to maintain the high quality and style of accommodation, presentation and customer experience resulting in excellent tourist ratings and return business. The versatility of the two operations gives the opportunity for new owners to utilise the business and space to suit their own requirements or continue as at present with 4 guest suites each with private spa bathrooms and two well appointed holiday letting units.
