Believed to have originally been built by the British army at the time of the Napoleonic War as �temporary accommodation for non commissioned officers� Dragonfly Cottage still stands proudly 200 years later! Recently fully renovated and refurbished it�s now a beautiful home with �all mod cons�, featuring a centrally heated relaxed open plan living space including a large conservatory at the rear that can be used as part of the house all year round, and - due to it's full width bi-fold doors - part of the river side terrace garden in the summer!
