The interior has been refurbished to provide well-appointed accommodation with light-filled rooms and high ceilings. The ground floor offers flexible space for entertaining or family living, while the lower ground floor features an open-plan hobbies/playroom, laundry room, boot room, cloakroom, and wine store. The first floor has a spacious landing/study area leading to four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite dressing room and bathroom.

The cottage provides ancillary accommodation, connected to the Coach House, which has been converted into a garage, games/store room, and pool house with changing room. The gardens, originally designed by Lennox Boyd, feature refined herbaceous borders, yew hedging, and specimen trees, with a walled and private pool area and a separate one-acre vegetable garden. The property is set in a picturesque village on the edge of the hamlet of Compton Bassett, close to Calne, Marlborough, and Devizes.
