Lotus Cottage

Sleeps 6

3 Bedrooms

This spacious, apartment-style cottage is set within a pretty, country estate in the Vale of Glamorgan and is perfect for a group of family or friends who wish to relax in the Welsh countryside.

Lotus Cottage is housed in the beautifully restored, original stable block along with four other cottages (there are eight in total at the estate). It’s the most spacious of the cottages and features exposed stone walls that provide character, while the high level of attention to detail combines the charm of a boutique country house hotel with the warmth of a home. Enjoy picnics in the estate’s gardens and admire views of Glamorgan’s Heritage Coast, before getting cosy in your open-plan living space. Meanwhile, days out can be enjoyed at local beaches, the Wales Coastal Path and the historic town of Cowbridge.

There are three bedrooms. Two are king-size bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room and the other has a bathroom (with a freestanding bath and shower over) on a mezzanine floor accessed via loft stairs. The third bedroom is a twin room which is on a mezzanine floor accessed via loft stairs and has an en-suite shower room.

You will also have access to a separate, shared, laundry room with a washing machine, iron and ironing board situated in the outer courtyard. Meanwhile, the estate’s 9 acres of gardens and grounds are perfect for a quiet stroll, a picnic or admiring the sunset over the sea in the distance.
