Surprise View Cottages

Lowna is the beautiful heart of Surprise View. Seen from the vantage point at the church in Gillamoor, it is like a jewel set in the green and gold of the Moors and woodlands and valleys. It has a timeless quality, and yet has been brought into the 21st Century with all the latest skills that master-builders can craft.
It has an entrance hall leading into a spacious farmhouse kitchen with tiled floor and Aga; choose either to eat in here round the large kitchen table or in the elegant, oak-floored dining room which has an equally large oak table and upholstered chairs. From here you can stroll out onto the paved sitting-out area of the garden for drinks or have breakfast in the morning sun round the mill-wheel garden table.
Walk from the dining room into the spacious sitting room which welcomes you with a roaring log fire, and sofas and chairs that you can sink into! A large flat-screen TV and hi-fi system complete the relaxation zone. A telephone is provided and for those unable to resist a dabble, Wi-fi is freely available!
From the hallway climb up the oak staircase into deep-carpeted bedrooms.
The two double rooms each have luxurious king-sized beds with memorize mattresses and feather and down duvets and crisp cotton linen; fluffy white towels in each ensuite shower room add up to a cosseted stay!
There are two twin bedrooms one of which has its own ensuite shower room and the second twin room is next to the newly fitted family bathroom; each of the full-sized single beds has feather and down duvets and crisp cotton linen; please ask if you would prefer blankets. Fluffy white towels and toiletries are plentiful.
All the bedrooms are sunny and have wonderful views looking out onto fields and woods and down to the river Dove and the valley below.
Linen, towels and all other services are included in the rent. Flat-screen TV, CD/radio, DVD, washing machine, drier, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, microwave and telephone are provided; there is broadband available via Wi-fi.
