An 18th-century semi-detached farm worker's cottage in a small hamlet, surrounded by splendid countryside and near the river Thames

This little place is nicely beamed, the flagstones are original, the walls are lime plastered and the kitchen table is oak: a huge amount of care has been taken not to ruin the cottage by overdoing things. You'll find a good utility room for muddy boots and then a big separate sitting room with a lovely fireplace, original art and a dresser stuffed with colourful antique china.

The kitchen is homely with a big table for chatting or even chopping, and a mishmash of benches and chairs. Everywhere your eye rests there's something pretty to look at. Bedrooms upstairs are off a square hallway - the big double with endless views over the garden and a hidden TV, a children's room with lots of books and a sweet single for nanny or granny. 

There are footpaths leading from the cottage gate across fields down to the Thames; wander down to the lock and watch the barges or head to Tadpole Bridge for a pint at the Trout.
