The cowbyre was converted most recently. It was used as a milking parlour until the 1970s. The cows would walk up into their own stall and eat the food put in front of them in a trough as they patiently stood to be milked. Today the cowbyre is a ground floor cottage which sleeps four people in two bedrooms, a double and a twin. It is very accessible for wheelchair users.
As with the other cottages it has underfloor heating to provide all round warmth and slate floors for a none slip surface which is easy to drive a wheelchair over.
The spacious bathroom has a roll-in shower (thermostatically controlled), with drop down shower seat, vanity basin with lever taps, grab rails and Clos-o-mat toilet.
The living area is open plan with dining table and chairs for four people. The lounge area has comfortable seating, a television and DVD player. There is a well equipped kitchen area with different height work surfaces, built in oven, hob and extractor, sink with lever tap, fridge/freezer, and microwave.
