Lantern Cottage is a delightful stone cottage, an end terrace of 3 in the heart of the picturesque village of Lower Solva, set on the bank of the stream and only yards from the pretty harbour and the sea. This traditional cottage retains its original character with beams, exposed stone walls, and wooden floors, comfortably furnished in an eclectic mix of contemporary and antique pieces.A pathway from the parking space leads to the front of Lantern Cottage and gives pedestrians access to the other 2 cottages in the terrace. The glazed porch opens into the dining room with its farmhouse table and wood burning stove, the compact galley-style kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to maximise the space. There is a second wood burning stove in the sitting room, perfect for cosying up on those chillier evenings. From the dining room, a half flight of open tread stairs lead to a shower room, while the open tread stairs continue up to the 3 bedrooms nestling in the eaves and a further bathroom all with beams, wooden floors and traditional panelling. The 2 double bedrooms offer super views over the garden to the stream and wooded valley side, but mind your head there are some low beams.
