Crooks Cottage is situated at the heart of the picture postcard riverside village of Dittisham. This 18th century fisherman's cottage has been beautifully renovated with all the homely luxuries you would expect while cleverly preserving its traditional character. The back garden is the perfect retreat for outdoor dining and enjoys outstanding views over the water. The Ferry Boat Inn and The Anchorstone Cafe are just a short stroll away right by the quayside where water sports enthusiasts can hire paddle boards and boats.
Accommodation:
From the entrance foyer with space for coats and boots, there's the stylish open-plan living space - a blend of modern-meets-retro with traditional cottage features. Two comfortable, contrasting sofas centre around the large log burner with its original stone hearth - perfect for snuggling up on those chillier winter evenings whilst watching a film on the wall mounted TV.
The chic dining table with white marble top and brushed gold legs with sumptuous velvet dining chairs comfortably seats four.
The well-equipped shaker-style kitchen has an oven and hob as well as a dishwasher, Nespresso Coffee Maker and toaster. Off the kitchen is the utility room where you will find the washing machine and tumble dryer, a small freezer, as well as the ground-floor WC. Access to the rear garden is also through this room.
Climb the stairs at the end of the day where you will find a choice of two bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom has a 6ft super king bed and a large wall-mounted TV. The twin bedroom has two single beds with wrought-iron bed frames, which can be configured as a superking bed, and a TV. The family bathroom includes a bath with an overhead shower.
Outside:
At the back of the cottage is the paved, suntrap, courtyard garden, with an outdoor dining area that looks out over the river. It's the perfect spot for your morning coffee or evening fizz.
Parking:
The property's location means there's no parking on site, although you can briefly pull up outside to load and unload. There are two car parks in the village - at The Ham and The Level - roughly 300m away (there is a steep hill up to ‘The Level' car park) or free on-street parking on Riverside Road.
