The cottage

Built in 1943 and remodeled in 2022, River Cottage is a studio for two in the most secluded corner of the grounds. A four-poster king bed and a Tantra Chair fill the room, and the enclosed lanai faces the garden. The full kitchen means you can cook a real meal. It is the unit couples ask for most for honeymoons and anniversaries.
