Discover country charm at its very best at this Grade II listed cottage, set on a working farm. Just outside the hamlet of Duntisbourne Leer, it's a beautifully restored slice of history with classic country furnishings and a good deal of character. The living room looks out over neighbouring farm buildings, with sheep grazing in the field behind, while inside there's a pretty log burner for cosy winter stays and a folding dining table. A well-equipped kitchen and two comfortable bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, complete the home, but there's a little treat out on the private terrace in the form of your very own hot tub. Out here there's a table and chairs, as well as a barbecue and fire pit, and you'll have access to the gated field if you'd like to find a perfect spot for a picnic. With a stream and a small lake nearby, there are plenty of country walks to be had from your doorstep, or it's a fifteen-minute drive to Cirencester for great places to eat, drink and shop.
