Appletree Cottage KitchenCottage ConservatoryTwin Bedded Room in Swallows NestSwallows Nest Lounge

Coombs View was originally a thriving working small holding built during the 17th century. Built of traditional red sandstone it has seen many changes over the years - becoming a joiners shop, a hostelry, surviving a fire in the 1950’s then falling into decline and neglect.

Still a working small holding it has been rebuilt with, once again the emphasis on animals and people. A small number of homely pet boarding rooms, a hydrotherapy pool for dogs, pet sitting and complementary therapies for both pets and their owners complement the self contained cottages.

Both Mouse Hole and Swallows Nest Cottages have been converted from the traditional stone barn which housed the working horses, implements and hay store. Original features have been preserved wherever possible, such as beams, windows and T-fold ceilings. Mousehole still contains the original beam which was built into the sandstone wall to hold horses work harnesses and collars. Swallows Nest retains the traditional slat windows but glazed patio doors have replaced the double oak barn doors.

Both are cosy and well equipped with separate secure gardens

The three cottages each have their own attractions
