White Lea Cottage
White Lea Cottage is a three bedroom traditional stone built house under a Staffordshire blue tile roof. Built in 1746 by Thomas Bassett, the younger, this building was originally constructed as a hay store, cart shed and shippon. It has been tastefully converted into a delightful large house containing many features including beamed ceilings, exposed stone walls and large fire with log burner. It has three double bedrooms each with en-suite bathroom. The largest bedroom can be equipped with two or four single beds or a super king size double. The dining kitchen can seat up to eight people. It is fully central heated with all modern amenities including dish washer.
