Brecks Cottage

Tuxford 4.1 miles.

Brecks Cottage is a stylish house set on the outskirts of the rural hamlet of Moorhouse, Nottinghamshire.

Offering spacious accommodation for families and groups of friends, boasting generous gardens, a hot tub and one woodburning stove.

Arriving via the large private driveway, Brecks Cottage sits as a detached farmhouse surrounded by open countryside on the edge of Moorhouse.

Step into the entrance porch and leave muddy boots and walking shoes behind before opening the stable door into the hallway, where a high ceiling immediately creates a sense of space.

An oak staircase rises ahead, its clean lines picked up by stylish statement lighting that casts a warm glow across the hall, highlighting the craftsmanship and setting the tone for the rooms beyond.

Across the hallway, the kitchen forms the heart of the home.

Granite worktops and distinctive pink tiles frame a space designed for cooking together, with integrated appliances keeping everything within easy reach.

Pull up a stool at the breakfast bar for morning coffee or keep conversation flowing while meals come together.

From here, the kitchen opens directly into the main living and dining space, where Italian stone flooring runs beneath a lantern roof and patio doors lead out onto the patio.

This is a flexible area for shared meals, relaxed lounging and a dedicated play space for children, with a large Smart TV mounted for family film nights.

A short set of steps leads to the dining area, where exposed beams and a bay window add character to mealtimes.

Head into the sitting room, where the second woodburning stove creates a natural focal point.

A mounted TV and bay window with patio doors make this an inviting place to gather in the evenings, with easy access to the garden beyond.

Completing the ground floor is a fully tiled shower room with a large walk-in shower, ideal after days spent outdoors or for easing busy mornings when the house is full.

Upstairs, the light-filled landing leads to five well-sized bedrooms.

The main bedroom enjoys views across surrounding farmland and opens into a private en-suite with rainfall shower.

Another bedroom also looks out over open countryside, while further rooms include built-in wardrobes, a decorative fireplace and additional storage, offering flexibility for a range of guests.

A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

Outside, a timber gate leads to the rear garden, where a paved patio adjoins a broad lawn.

There is space for outdoor dining, play and relaxing, with raised beds, a summer house and garden shed adding interest.

A children’s play area keeps younger guests entertained, while the hot tub offers a place to unwind as the day draws to a close.

Two timber stables sit within the grounds, reflecting the property’s rural setting.

A local pub is close enough for easy outings, while nearby market towns and the city of Lincoln provide a wider choice of shops, dining and attractions.

Sherwood Forest offers woodland walks beneath ancient oak trees and open clearings steeped in legend.

Lincoln Cathedral dominates the skyline with its soaring stonework, detailed interior and views across the surrounding landscape, while Lincoln Castle invites you to walk the walls and explore its historic spaces.

Clumber Park opens out into sweeping parkland, with lakeside paths, woodland trails and open lawns to explore at any time of year.

Brecks Cottage brings families and friends together in a characterful farmhouse setting on the edge of open countryside.
