We have refurbished the lounge, kitchen and dining area of Brockstone Cottage, and we are very happy with the result.

We will be writing more about this in the next few weeks, but here is a taster.

We’ve removed the existing fireplace, excavated and found this lovely slate lintel and the original fire space- probably about 200 years old. Into this we’ve put a great log burner. It’s a new look but an old look . New curtains too…

The old fireplace has gone, and behind it we have found an old lintel and fireplace. There is now a wonderful log burner cosy!
