This 18th-century cottage has plenty of period charm, with low beamed ceilings, a traditional stone inglenook fireplace and bedrooms nestled under the eaves. While it may not suit taller guests, those who fancy an authentic Cotswolds stay will love the original features, as well as the garden with its rolling countryside views and unfenced pond. Winchcombe's high street is just a short walk away where you’ll find cosy country inns, restaurants and boutiques, while other Cotswolds gems like Stow-on-the-Wold, Chipping Campden and Cheltenham are easily reachable by car.

Home truths

    This home is laid over two floors with steep internal stairs between them. Due to the period nature of the cottage, there are low beams and doorways throughout. Both bedrooms are located in the cottage's eaves with sloped ceilings and skylight windows.

    If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance and bring your own cot linen. One stair gate is fixed at the top of the stairs.

    Please note there is an unenclosed pond within the garden, so children and infants must be supervised at all times.

    A starter supply of wood is provided for the wood burner.

    The smoke and CO detectors operate on a sound-only basis.
