Cider
Cider house is a quirky renovated ‘terrace’ barn located in the scenic chocolate box Hamlet of Hutcherleigh just outside of Blackawton Village. The cottage has been renovated with Guests in mind making sure it has everything you could possibly need for your stay and giving you a real insight into the joys of living in the Countryside. Need a break from a busy lifestyle or busy city then this is the perfect country home for you. The cottage also offers Guests up to two car park spaces for your holiday.
Cider House is a beautiful barn with two floors, the ground floor with the essential social zones for all the family and on the first floor are the bedrooms and bathrooms. As you approach the cottage you will be greeted with a paved front terrace, this is ideal for morning, noon and night dining. The terrace is a sunny spot throughout the day and perfect if you need some chill-out time with a good book. It is a great spot to watch the world go by, wave to the local Farmer, do some twitching or simply observe the wildlife. The property has a communal garden a few yards away from the front door of Ciders. This communal garden is perfect with friends and family to enjoy some garden game antics and there are picnic benches too.
