The property

Maenclochog 3.5 miles.

Shippen Cottage welcomes guests with its traditional stone exterior and peaceful garden setting, once home to the original milking parlour—‘shippen’ meaning cowshed.

After settling into the off-road parking space, the cottage invites you to explore its characterful interior.

Step into the open-plan living area, where exposed beams and a glowing woodburning stove create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The kitchen is thoughtfully arranged for relaxed self-catering, while the dining table offers a sociable spot to gather and share meals.

After dinner, stretch out on the corner sofa and unwind with a film or a favourite book.

Upstairs, the mezzanine twin bedroom sits beneath a sloping ceiling, with Velux windows framing views across the nearby dam and lake.

This space, with its exposed beams and tranquil outlook, is ideal for older children or friends.

Two further double bedrooms provide restful retreats, and the bathroom offers a chance to soak or refresh before the day begins.

At the rear of the property, the utility room is perfectly placed for muddy boots and laundry, with direct access to the enclosed garden.

Outside, the patio is a lovely spot for morning coffee or evening drinks, while the dog stretches their legs nearby.

Guests also benefit from access to Ivy Court’s shared facilities, including a seasonal covered swimming pool, games room, footgolf, and a children’s play area—all just a short stroll away.
