Bass Court:
Bass Court (converted from an agricultural
building built circa 1650), is set in a private courtyard
overlooked by large mullioned windows and, having entered
via the stable door, immediately impresses the visitor with
it's unusual galleried landing.
Bass Court has its' own Canadian Hottub in an elegantly cedar
shingled bath house in the private courtyard.
Upstairs, the low windows, set below the thatched roof and
exposed timbers, enhance the sense of history in this cottage
designed for six, with three bedrooms (each with
its own bathroom the master of which is en suite).

The extensive ground floor includes a twin bedroom (suitable
for the partially disabled), using
a shower room/toilet.
Bass Court has a well proportioned kitchen amply large enough
to eat 'en famille' at the oval oak table, china and glass
is displayed on the
Dartmouth dresser, so called because it was made from the
ships timbers of HMS Britannia (a three decked warship moored
in the river Dart which was the home of Dartmouth Naval College
before the current building was built in 1905.
The sitting room in Bass Court exudes a warmth and character
that reflects the age of the building. Cool in the summer
months, and snug in the winter (Bass has a log burning stove)
and is ideal whatever the weather and season.
Bass Court has a private terrace and garden to the West side
of the cottage, which overlooks the countryside beyond.
