Set in the heart of the village of Swynnerton, this picturesque, thatched cottage offers tradition, comfort and style. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms, it’s the ideal accommodation option for small families or groups of friends in search of the perfect country retreat to call home while they discover the stunning Staffordshire countryside together. Admire the beauty of Barlaston Downs (4 miles), which offers scenic trails that take in stunning views of the Long Mynd, Mow Cop Castle, the Wrekin and the Clee Hills. Birdwatchers should keep their eyes peeled for kestrels, buzzards and rooks. Enjoy a traditional day out on one of Britain’s oldest heritage steam railways at Foxfield Steam Railway (8 miles). Alternatively, take a stroll around the beautiful landscape gardens at Trentham (4.5 miles) and you’ll find a serene lake and a popular maze. If you have the kids with you, they’ll just love checking out the thrilling rides at Alton Towers (18 miles).
Park your car and head to this gorgeous cottage’s back door. Step inside and you’ll notice that the cottage boasts original beams and some low ceilings that add real character and authenticity to the space. Make yourself at home in the cosy open-plan living/dining room before heading to the contemporary-style kitchen to cook up a storm. Share dinner with your loved ones around the large oak dining table before you retire to the living area to stretch out and catch up on your favourite TV shows. At the end of the day, there are two lovely bedrooms waiting for you upstairs – one delightful double and one charming twin. Completing the layout, you’ll find a chic family bathroom with a shower and WC downstairs.
In the morning, make yourself a fresh cup of coffee and enjoy it in the cottage’s peaceful, enclosed garden. There is private off-road parking for one car.
