Designed exclusively for couples, the open-plan living space is the heart of the cottage. It's a place to unwind, relax on the comfortable sofa with a good book, and reconnect. The modern, fully-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare a romantic dinner, which can be enjoyed at the intimate dining table before settling in for a film—all supported by superfast gigabit broadband.
This isn't just a place to sleep; it's a complete lifestyle experience. As a guest at Underley Estate, you have exclusive access to the state-of-the-art private gym, perfect for staying active. For those mixing leisure with work, the 'Herdwork' co-working space provides a quiet, professional environment, making "The Dog House" an ideal 'work-from-anywhere' escape.
The cottage warmly welcomes up to two dogs, making it the perfect base for exploring the surrounding countryside with your four-legged companions. On sunny afternoons, the garden furniture provides a lovely spot for an al fresco coffee while you soak in the peaceful atmosphere of the private estate.
To make your stay that little bit more special, add a food hamper to be delivered to your cottage for your arrival.
For larger groups or family gatherings, The Dog House offers wonderful flexibility. It can be booked in conjunction with the adjacent Bluebell Cottage, which accommodates a further four guests, allowing for a combined party of six to enjoy the estate together.
