Whittaker Mews is a newly renovated cottage in the heart of the village of Rocester on the Staffordshire/Derbyshire border. The original property was a storage barn constructed in the late 1800's. In the early part of the 20th century, the barn was used as a small builders and timber yard serving the local community. During the mid 1980's the building was converted into smaller individual dwellings. Since purchasing the property, it has undertook a complete renovation taking two years to complete. We hope you will enjoy the features of the cottage during your stay. The lounge has ample seating for six guests has a 55 inch smart flat panel TV with Netflix compatibility. There is also a good selection of games and books for your entertainment. The kitchen is very well appointed with appliances including a large American fridge freezer, washer/dryer, integral dishwasher, microwave, oven, gas hob, slow cooker and air fryer . The dining area has a table with chairs and benches to comfortably seat six people. Double Bedroom 1 has a king size bed , wardrobes, dressing table, a flat panel wall mounted TV and bedside USB charging.
