The cottages are set at right angles to the house and lie to one side separated from the house by a small garden area. The front of the cottages face away from the house to ensure privacy.

To the front of the cottages, on the opposite side from the main house, there is a large garden consisting mainly of a flat lawn with traditional flower borders and trees. There is also a communal decked area and hot tub! From the garden there are fantastic views over unspoilt open countryside.

EXTERNALLY

Cwm Howell is approached via a long drive leading off a no-through road and running across farmland. The drive leads down to a large parking and turning area to the front of the house.

To one side of this parking area is a modern 30’ STATIC CARAVAN. This is ideal oveflow accommodation and has services connected.

This whole area has been recently landscaped and has been planted with a variety of fruit trees etc.

Beyond this parking area lies a wood with a small stream flowing through it. The stream feeds a large pond. A path crosses the stream and leads round the back of the pond to a purpose built dove house / aviary and a large OFFICE / WORKSHOP of timber construction. This is currently used to run a small business and consists of a large main room, approx. 9m x 6m plus a small kitchen and bathroom. This building offers a range of uses.

Water leaving the pond does so via a waterfall and flows through steeply sloping woodland (approx 4 acres).

To the rear of the house is a very large patio area and beyond this an area of lawn and a chicken house / run. From here, the land drops steeply away and then levels out at the foot of the hill. This land extends to some 5 acres, and whilst not of the best quality, certainly offers scope for exercise!

This property provides huge scope for someone wishing to run a holiday letting business from home. The current owners have worked hard to improve the immediate environment and to promote the business side. You can visit their website for further details of the holiday business at

www.rainbowcottageholidays.co.uk

In addition to the holiday business, the wooden office building allows someone to bring an existing home based business with them, or perhaps to convert this to accommodation for a manager on site! For those interested in this type of business, it is definitely worth viewing the property to see the setting and appreciate the potential.

SERVICES

Mains electricity. Natural spring water supply (with recent quality certificate). Private drainage.
