Lady Jane Grey Cottage is a charming and carefully restored, 3-bedroom cottage that sleeps 5 guests in 1 double room, 1 twin room and 1 single room, with 1 family bathroom. The cottage is a semi-detached (alongside Princess Elizabeth Cottage), two storey property with a fully-equipped modern kitchen and a spacious living and dining area that leads out to a private courtyard with seating. Upstairs are three comfortable and well-appointed bedrooms and a modern bathroom with a fixed shower over a bathtub. This lovely cottage was originally part of a paper mill, which was restored to make two cottages (Lady Jane Grey and Princess Elizabeth) and two apartments (St Kenelm and Oliver Cromwell), preserving the original exposed walls and beams throughout.
