  • Peaceful,traditional barn tucked away in an idyllic location in the heart of the North Cotswolds
  • Just a short distance from Stratford-upon-Avon and a great base for exploring the pretty Cotswold villages.
  • Surrounded by breath-taking countryside which you are free to roam
Property code: OC-54081

This secluded stone barn conversion, set amidst the beauty of the North Cotswolds, sleeps five guests and welcomes two dogs making it an ideal rural retreat with friends or family. Surrounded by countryside just waiting to be explored, the cottage is a fantastic base for walkers with access onto waymarked paths, so your canine companion will be in doggy heaven! French doors opening onto the lawn from both the kitchen and lounge expand the space and let the natural light in.

Inside the property, there’s plenty of space for your canine to curl up, whether that’s by the wood burner in the lounge - a cheerful and cosy room with exposed beams and painted stone walls - or at the foot of the bed in one of the three chic bedrooms. Gather round the dining table at mealtimes in the bright kitchen space and enjoy countryside views from your seat. Upstairs, the traditional features continue, with more exposed beams. The bedrooms are charming and airy spaces to rest your head, with high ceilings and natural light. On the lawn by the house you can relax on the garden furniture, while the more energetic amongst your pack can stroll to the bottom of the garden where they’ll find a hard tennis court, with racket and balls provided, and a trampoline. Please note that the garden is not enclosed.

Ettington village is close by, 1.5 miles away with a store for essentials and supplies, and a friendly inn to while away the evening. Take a day trip to beautiful Stratford-upon-Avon (7.5 miles), birthplace of Shakespeare and home to the Royal Shakespeare Company Theatre, where there are events happening all year round. Venturing further afield, Blenheim Palace (26 miles) is a majestic location, and dogs on leads are welcome to rove and explore the park but cannot go inside the grand building.

Wonderful cottage and area. We were blessed with sunny weather so enjoyed sitting outside with a cuppa. Used the tennis court too. The furniture is a little tired, but the cottage was clean.

Lovely accommodation, very spacious and has everything you could need. I'd say you probably need a car. The local pub is about a 20 min walk, but part of the walk is along a busy main road, with no pavement. Fine for us, but would be tricky if any mobility issues/strollers. I loved it, and am looking at coming back!

This is a beautiful rural cottage. The views are stunning. It was one of the best equipped cottages I've stayed at. It is very cosy and was lovely and warm. It was decorated for Christmas, which we loved. The host Gabriella lives next door and was really friendly. She thoughtfully left us a welcome pack of milk biscuits and eggs, which was greatly Read moreappreciated. We brought our dog with us and she was very much at home too. I definitely would recommend this cottage. Hide

The cottage is in a most lovely location with plenty to do/see around it. The bedroom arrangement suited the three of us perfectly so is great for two couples. The bathrooms could do with a little attention but they and the bedrooms were clean. The outside area is lovely but close to the couple caretaking. This didn't bother us but it is not privatRead moree. There is no Welcome Pack so take milk, bread, juice basics! Hide
