Perfectly suited for up to 4 guests, this delightful and quiet property offers a peaceful blend of rustic character and modern comfort.

Hollybush Studio boasts a beautifully maintained private garden, ideal for relaxing or dining al fresco with the provided outdoor furniture. The exterior’s classic timber cladding and lush surroundings create a secluded, tranquil atmosphere—perfect for couples, solo travelers, or small families. Inside, you’ll find an open-plan living area that seamlessly connects the cozy lounge, fully equipped kitchen, and dining space. The bright and airy bedroom features two comfortable beds and a warm wooden interior, with charming touches like an easel and telescope, making it a great spot for creatives or stargazers. A cozy wood-burning stove and ample natural light add to the serene ambiance. Hollybush Studio was a working artist studio where John McLusky drew his iconic James Bond comic art for the Daily Express. John drew all the original Fleming 007 stories from his desk on the first floor. The Studio is styled as a mid-century bachelor pad and in keeping with the creative history of the Studio there is an artist’s easel, a manual typewriter, guitar, vinyl record player, telescope and books popular from the 1950s.
