This beautiful home sits on the Sudeley Castle estate and was the former laundry for the castle. Now, it’s a stunning home, refurbished in keeping with the age of the building – you can look forward to mullioned windows, original fireplaces, and high ceilings. The kitchen and dining areas are perfect for celebrations, with plenty of room for a large group. Outside, you can soak in the hot tub while admiring countryside views, then dine alfresco. Elegant yet charming, this home is a bit special.
