Dovecote cottage

Dovecote Cottage is a barn conversion situated at the end of a three-storey 17th-century stable block. The gable end retains the original dovecote, which is the source of the name. Throughout the building are the original oak beams.

Upon entering Dovecote, guests will be drawn to the spacious lounge which features traditional furnishings and a large selection of comfortable seating. Large window and colour television enhance the room’s overall appeal.

Adjacent to the lounge is the well-equipped kitchen, which includes an electric cooker, microwave and fridge. A dining table and chairs comfortably seat six. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, furnished with period pieces and adorned with beautiful beams. A bathroom with shower, basin and toilet is located just off the landing.

Dovecote Cottage is a property we intend to consider for short breaks.

We expect all our cottages to be maintained by our guests and cleaned before returning the key.

Described in our ‘Traditional’ range, they are favourites amongst some of the staff who work at Docklow. They boast lots of country character which is very popular when in the countryside. The kitchens are very spacious with all amenities including electric cooker, fridge, and microwave.

Stable cottage is in the private mews by the garden at Docklow, close to the courtyard area, near to the tackle shop, restaurant and literally a minute or so’s walk to the lakes. All have close by parking and their own tackle lock ups.
