This Cotswold hideaway is set within 3 acres of private grounds, just outside the market town of Minchinhampton. The two-bedroom, pet-friendly lodge is perfect for couples and small families looking to immerse themselves in nature. Enjoy walks with the woofer directly from the property, or head further afield to join the long-distance Cotswold Way (6 miles) or stroll through the trees at Westonbirt Arboretum (9 miles).
The stylish lodge enjoys an elevated position, with views across the valley. Follow the winding track to the front door, and once inside, discover a contemporary retreat with sleek furniture and calming decor. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has a vaulted ceiling and a wall of glass to frame the amazing vistas. Prepare delicious dinners in the sleek kitchen and share mealtimes around the dining table. In the evenings, sink into the sumptuous sofa to watch the Smart TV with Rover curled at your feet. The lodge has two beautifully decorated super-king-size bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room. Completing the accommodation is a gorgeous family bathroom. Outside, soak up the sunshine during an al fresco meal on the terrace, or take a dip in the luxurious outdoor bath. As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit for a spot of stargazing. There is also a sand area where children can play and grassy areas for the pup to burn off steam. Private parking is available for four cars.
Minchinhampton is a traditional Cotswold town, with chocolate-box cottages and medieval architecture. The town has a great range of paw-friendly shops and eateries, and hosts regular outdoor markets. The National Trust’s Minchinhampton Common is a lovely spot for a relaxing dog walk, with stunning views across the Stroud Valleys. Nearby days out include the historic Painswick with its woof-friendly rococo garden, and the picture-postcard villages of Bisley and Slad (all within 8 miles).
