The property offers five bedrooms and self-contained accommodation which could be used as an annexe for family members or for lodgers or holidaymakers.
The main house has a welcoming entrance hall with tiled flooring and a turned staircase leading to the galleried first floor landing. The entrance hall also offers a large cloakroom.

Also on the first floor is the L-shaped kitchen and breakfast room. It features space for a breakfast table for informal dining, as well as shaker-style storage units to base and wall level, plus integrated appliances including a double oven, an induction hob and an extractor hood. There is also another good size bedroom on this level.
The gardens and grounds at Tannery House are absolutely magical and match the quality of the house. At the front of the property there is a gravel driveway with parking space for several vehicles.
The gardens are mostly to the rear, with the
south-facing aspect resulting in plenty of sunlight throughout the day. The garden includes paved and gravel terracing, well-maintained lawns and border flowerbeds stocked with various colourful flowers and shrubs. There is also a summer house, a log store and a bull pen, as well as a peaceful wildlife area with a gorgeous natural pond through which a tiny brook flows in the winter.
