Tucked away in an idyllic position within the village of Endon, sits this quirky, traditionally-styled, semi-detached property, Endon Bank Cottage.

Make your way through the private lawned gardens, admiring the pretty orchard as you pass before stepping down into the hallway of this enchanting property. Kick off your shoes on the porch before entering the well-equipped kitchen to find everything you could need to prepare your favourite home-cooked meals, with both an impressive electric AGA and a gas hob to assist you. Take a seat around the table together and while away the hours with a celebratory bottle of wine, before moving through to the comfort of the sitting room, kicking back on one of the sofas as the warmth of the electric woodburning-effect fire fills the room for a truly relaxing evening. From here, take a couple of steps up to find a wet room, where you can wash away the day following an action-packed adventure, while up on the first floor you can find a bathroom where you can indulge in a relaxing soak with a good book in hand. The first floor also hosts two equally inviting double bedrooms, both with ample storage space for your personal belongings and basins so you can refresh in the mornings before enjoying your morning cup of coffee out beneath the orchard.
