About this property
Ropemaker's Cottage, · Ropemaker's Cottage, cosy cottage retreat
The Ropemaker’s Cottage is a lovely home right in the centre of Ollerton village, located close to Newark in Nottinghamshire.
An enviable location nestled in the heart of the village boasting very short walks to two lovely local pubs, a superb Italian restaurant and an award winning tearoom beautifully positioned next to the quaint watermill and stream running opposite.
It is ideal for exploring the surrounding country parks and estates, with plenty of walking and cycling trails nearby.
Our cottage is a 2-bed self-catering entire home, newly fully refurbished and tastefully decorated to give a wonderful country feel.
Beautifully presented and immaculately clean, it still has many original features from its time as Rope Maker’s cottage, such as oak beams and rope hooks set into the low level ceilings.
Sleeping three people and set over two low floors with a spacious but cosy lounge and kitchen / diner, there is one double and one single bedroom and a family bathroom with a bath and walk-in shower.
Please note there are a few steps down in to the lounge as this is a traditional village cottage.
Smoking is not allowed and we are unable to accommodate pets.
Prior to your arrival we will send you the key box location and code, allowing you access to the property on check in. alternately one of our team can meet you on arrival to hand over the keys and answer any questions you may have. We don’t live far away and are always on hand shout you require any assistance during your stay.
If help or assistance is required at any point during your stay we will be more than happy to help or provide information.
