Combined they provide a wide range of commercial, sporting, social and educational facilities for most needs. Gurney Slade is also known for its quarry which is passed by the small country lane which leads to 1 Treetops Cottages. The quarry is strictly controlled, and the present owners do not find it a nuisance of any kind. They are happy to discuss all details with interested parties

From this slightly elevated position are delightful views over the surrounding partly wooded countryside. In front of the cottage is parking space for one car but there is ample other space virtually adjacent. The cottage has been greatly improved whilst retaining period details including stonework, flagstone flooring and old pine timberwork. These now combine with a wood burning stove, double glazing, oil central heating, a fitted kitchen and 2 excellent bathrooms. The front door opens into a small porch opening into a snug sitting room with flagstones, wood burner and the staircase to the first floor. (plus understairs cupboard). Steps and a pine door lead into the kitchen. This has an excellent range of fitted floor and wall units, timber work surfaces, tiled cooker alcove and appliances available by negotiation. A wide archway leads into the garden room/dining room which has windows to 3 sides plus 2 Velux roof lights which all combine to flood this great living area with sunlight. Also on the ground floor is an excellent bathroom with limestone tiled flooring, “fired earth” wall tiles, heated towel rail, basin, loo, shower cubicle and a cast iron bath.
