Cottage in Glenorchy

C Wise Cottage - Glenorchy

If you are inspired by rustic old things and being cosy this cottage is the one. The cottage is well over 100 yrs old but has had some TLC to keep it alive, it is fully fenced with plenty of room for all to zoom around. As with any old place there are quirks and oddities but lying in the big old bath looking outside is a must.The toilet is an oldie but a goody even if it is a hop skip and a jump from the house, I'd advise bringing a torch!!! For the timid, it doesn't have a flush button!!!!!!
