Carwood House - 6 Bedroom (Sleeps 13) Cottage in Hindolveston

Description

Carwood House

Spacious Former Pub with a Large Garden, Fire Pit & Gym. Sleeps 13

Carwood House is one of the oldest and most historic buildings in the picturesque village of Hindolveston. Once the much-loved Red Lion (Bullards) public house — and before that The King’s Head — this remarkable home dates mainly from the 17th century and brims with original charm.
You’ll find oak beams, two working inglenook fireplaces, an Elizabethan window, and even an ancient pair of shoes once hidden to ward off evil spirits — a genuine piece of local folklore!

If space, character, and escape are what you crave, Carwood House delivers. Spanning over 3,200 sq ft, it offers room for everyone to relax — from quiet reading corners to sociable living areas for large gatherings. The large enclosed garden provides both sunny and shaded spots to unwind or play.
Super-fast mesh Wi-Fi (up to 500 Mbps) ensures strong coverage throughout, perfect for streaming, working, or gaming.
Please see the floor plan in the photos for a sense of the generous layout.
