Stylish cottage near Cheltenham, Cotswolds, Oxford and Bath

Our village is small, friendly and full of character, we have a traditional English pub within walking distance. It's very peaceful yet only a few minutes by car to the M5 giving easy access to the Cotswolds, Oxford, Stratford-on-Avon, Bath, and the Brecon Beacons. The spa town of Cheltenham, gateway to the Cotswolds, is a 15 minute drive away.
The cottage has a beautiful double bedroom and there is a double sofa bed in the main sitting room. You can walk to the river to watch boats meandering by and maybe see a heron or two. This is a relaxing place to chill and recharge your batteries, perfect for couples with a South facing private courtyard garden complete with bbq.

Our Neighbourhood

Nearest Airport: Birmingham - 50 miles

We live in a very friendly village which is very quiet yet within 10 minutes you can be on the motorway network. We are an hour's drive from Birmingham International airport and approximately 1.5 hours from Bristol airport. Getting to London by train is pretty easy and there is a variety of options to get there. The historic town of Tewkesbury with its beautiful Abbey and boat trips on the River Avon is only a few minutes away, as is Upton on Severn which is a quaint place for a riverside drink or bite to eat. The Malvern Hills can be seen from our house and beyond are the Brecon Beacons if you feel the need for more challenging walking. If it's culture you are after, Eastnor Castle is a very pretty place to visit, Shakespeare's Stratford on Avon is a short drive away and there are a variety of National Trust places on the doorstep such as Croome Park and a little further afield, the beautiful gardens of Hidcote. Cheltenham offers great shopping, and the lovely architecture of Bath and Oxford are also within easy driving distance. Whatever your reason for visiting this area, there is a lot on offer.

Lifestyle

We have exchanged our house on several occasions in the past but with various things going on in our lives, have not done so for several years. We really enjoyed the experience and now we have converted our Victorian stable building into a beautiful cottage, we are ready to exchange again. Exchanges can be non simultaneous.
We are a family of 4, and although our children are grown up sometimes they travel with us. We like to walk and with the Malvern hills only a short drive away plus many other local routes, it is a nice part of the country to be in, whether you have a dog or not! We have a wide selection of maps available should you wish to travel further to walk. The courtyard garden is equipped with a table and chairs and a barbecue. The kitchen diner is the hub of the cottage and reflects our love of good food, we enjoy cooking and entertaining and you should find everything you need in the kitchen.

There is Freeview tv in the sitting room area and of course, Wi-fi throughout the cottage. There should be something for everyone to watch on those evenings when you just want to relax indoors.
We have great neighbours and if you like the idea of visiting our village pub, you will find a very warm welcome there.
