Waterhead Cottage nestles down a country lane and the cottage and location are the stuff of Enid Blyton adventures. A tidal stream (take care with children) runs alongside the garden and a wooden bridge leads to waterside meadows beyond. A wildlife track runs down to the Avon estuary, perfect for bird watching and leisurely walks. This quirky cottage on three floors has a wood-burner and French windows out to the garden. Narrow stairs lead to the first floor and steep companionway-style steps go to the top floor. Waterhead Cottage is ideal for a holiday like those of childhood memories, with only a couple of neighbours (there is a little used right of way across the garden) and the Owners across the lane. Please note, the cottage is unsuitable for young children, and television and mobile reception is non-existent.
