Bright, contemporary decor gives this charming cottage a welcoming feel, with the ground floor centred around a generous, light-filled open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The lounge is furnished with plush seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner, making it a cosy retreat after a day discovering the Cotswolds. The kitchen is well-equipped for a self-catering stay, and meals can be enjoyed at the dining table seating six. Upstairs, two double bedrooms combine cottage charm with comfortable furnishings. Both have pitched ceilings and low-set windows overlooking the orchard, adding character and a sense of connection with the rural surroundings. Please note that neither bedroom has room for a travel cot. The master double bedroom boasts an en-suite bathroom with a bath, while the second double bedroom features an en-suite shower room.
Outside, the bay doors lead to an outdoor dining area beside the orchard, where you can sit beneath the fruit trees and make the most of warmer days. Twelve properties share the orchard, although only five cottages, including this one, have direct access to this particular area. A BBQ is also available for summer meals. One parking space is located at the property, with further parking available in the main car park if required.
