Ropemaker's Cottage, · Ropemaker's Cottage, cosy cottage retreat

The Ropemaker’s Cottage is a lovely home right in the centre of Ollerton village, located close to Newark in Nottinghamshire.

An enviable location nestled in the heart of the village boasting very short walks to two lovely local pubs, a superb Italian restaurant and an award winning tearoom beautifully positioned next to the quaint watermill and stream running opposite.

It is ideal for exploring the surrounding country parks and estates, with plenty of walking and cycling trails nearby.

Our cottage is a 2-bed self-catering entire home, newly fully refurbished and tastefully decorated to give a wonderful country feel.

Beautifully presented and immaculately clean, it still has many original features from its time as Rope Maker’s cottage, such as oak beams and rope hooks set into the low level ceilings.

Sleeping three people and set over two low floors with a spacious but cosy lounge and kitchen / diner, there is one double and one single bedroom and a family bathroom with a bath and walk-in shower.

Please note there are a few steps down in to the lounge as this is a traditional village cottage.

Smoking is not allowed and we are unable to accommodate pets.

Mary V.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Very comfortable and well-equipped property
Communication was very good, the property was spotlessly clean and lots of very thoughtful touches in the well-stocked kitchen added to our enjoyment of the three-night stay. The instructions within the house were very clear and helpful, the cottage had a lovely feel and very comfortable beds and furniture.

Ollerton below zero
Whilst outside was freezing cold, inside was brilliantly warm on arrival. The hamper provided was more than anyone could expect. The cottage was presented with every detail thought through. Congratulations. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.10 out of 10.
