There is a second double bed (sofa bed) in the sitting room.
It is secluded and has its own private entrance.

Relaxing beautiful cottage
Relaxing spot right on the edge of the river, very private Styled beautifully, recently renovated Only downer was in photos there was a bath in bathroom, but in must be old photos as the cottage no longer has a bath. Which would of been very nice as that’s one of the reasons I booked the cottage Apart from that we loved the spot, host was super nice, bacon and eggs in the fridge along with a fresh home made loaf of bread Highly recommend
