Nestled in the quaint village of Nympsfield, this Grade II listed cottage is perfect for an escape to the country. Surrounded by miles of rolling Cotswold countryside, guests can settle by the fire in an inviting, pleasantly roomy home dating back to the 17th century. With exposed stonework and overhead beams, its charming period design features lend the cottage plenty of character. You'll be able to choose from two en-suite bedrooms – one of which serves as a super king-size or twin room – as well as both indoor and alfresco dining areas. The National Trust owned valley of Woodchester Park is also a half hour walk away, while the city of Gloucester is half an hour by car.
