Access Statement - The Old Roundhouse
Introduction
Our self catering cottage The Old Round House was formerly the corn mill powered by a
donkey. Access is to the side of the property.
The information here is provided in good faith, however, fittings within our cottages will change from time to time, and despite our best intentions the below may not necessaily be 100% current. Should any part of it be important to your booking (eg. access, furniture or fittings), please let us know at the time of booking. We look forward to welcoming you.
IMPORTANT: In the event of fire blocking the exit door, egress may be required from the ground floor bedroom via the bedroom window. Please read below regarding window height and size; the cottage may therefore not be suitable for those unable to exit via the window.
