Rose Cottage was once part of the early 1700’s dairy here at The Old Grove Farm. Eventually converted into a cosy cottage it retains lots of character from its past, with it’s high vaulted wooden ceilings, low limewashed walls, exposed beams and lovely open log fire.
The front of the building is built in the unique ‘soldier’ style of bricking and forms part of the enclosed design that makes up the large double-quadrangle that is the old Grove Farm.
Rose Cottage is single storey with lots of light and enjoys a small sunny herb garden & breakfast patio, as well as leading directly out to the orchard gardens.
Rose Cottage is one of the six cottages that make up the Old Grove Farm which dates back to the 1720's.
