About this property
A charming and beautifully furnished end-terrace Cotswold stone cottage, perfectly located just three minutes walk from the heart of Bourton-on-the-Water, one of the most picturesque villages in the Cotswolds. Set over three floors, the cottage oozes quality and charm. From the front hall enter the elegant sitting room which boasts luxurious Italian leather sofas and chair, ideal for relaxing whilst watching your favourite film after a day exploring the area. There is an exceptionally well-equipped kitchen, which has everything the chef of the party could ask for. At the rear of the property is a dining room, which has a picture window overlooking the rear sunny courtyard, perfect for catching up with friends over dinner. There is also a downstairs cloakroom. Make your way upstairs to two lovely and beautifully furnished bedrooms, the master king-size double having the added benefit of a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom with separate shower and bath, while the second double bedroom has fitted wardrobes and its own separate bathroom. The second floor offers a twin bedroom, again with its own bathroom. Outside, the rear courtyard is ideal for guests to relax in with a good book at any time of day and this can be accessed from both the dining room and through a side gate leading to the rear parking area. The beautiful village of Bourton-on-the-Water is just a stroll away and offers attractions and amenities to suit all tastes. For the walking enthusiast the Heart of England Way, Oxfordshire Way and Monarch's Way all run through the village. Just a short drive by car is a selection of the Cotswolds unspoilt towns and villages, including Moreton-in-Marsh, Broadway, Chipping Campden and Chipping Norton, along with the gardens of Hidcote Manor. Countryfile presenter Adam Henson's rare breeds farm, Cotswold Farm Park, is also close by. A superb holiday cottage to be enjoyed at any time of year.
Bourton-on-the-Water is a lovely historic village, set in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and dates back to Neolithic times. There are over 100 buildings that are Grade II listed or higher and the charming high street is set alongside the River Windrush.
