About this property

Dolphin House is a charming, Grade II listed townhouse, in the heart of the beautiful, medieval town of Burford. The house dates from the late 17th century with the shop front window being added around 1870 when the property became a bakers. Situated half way up The Hill, the house enjoys one of the most stunning settings in the Cotswolds. Internally, the property has been renovated and thoughtfully decorated with your ultimate comfort in mind, while still retaining its original period features that make it a truly exceptional country cottage. Offering a gorgeous sitting room with sumptuous sofas and armchairs - a lovely place to relax after a hard day sightseeing. Pass through the dining room into the superbly appointed kitchen, with all that you could need to create culinary masterpieces. At the rear of the ground floor is the light and bright conservatory, a lovely place to sit and relax whatever the season. On the first floor you will find two bedrooms, both with king-size beds; one has full en-suite facilities. You will also find a full family bathroom and family shower room on the first floor.
