Description from manager

Description

Staying at the Castle Gatehouse is akin to booking your very own miniature castle at Sudeley. The house marks the entrance to the castle grounds and has been converted and restored and offers comfortable accommodation for up to four guests. The ancient and impressive structure is complemented by symmetrical gardens lined with iron railings and a stone courtyard in the centre.

The accommodation is arranged with bedroom one and its two-poster bed and en-suite shower room, occupying one wing of the Gatehouse. Across the courtyard, another door leads into a well-equipped kitchen and stairs leading up to a beautifully furnished, cosy living area. The second bedroom is on the first floor of this wing along with an ensuite shower room.

Outside, guests can admire the pastoral views that line the driveway to the castle from two individually gated gardens– a mirror image of each other – neatly connected by a shared terrace in the middle with an outdoor dining table and chairs. There is private driveway parking for two cars and two dogs are welcome.

Ground Floor

Please note, as per the floor plan, the bedrooms have separate entrances across a courtyard and are not joined.

Bedroom One & En-Suite Shower Room:

The left wing of Castle Gatehouse is home to bedroom one, a delightful two-poster bedroom with a decorative fireplace, wardrobe and shelves, bedside tables and its own private en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower, WC and washbasin.

Through the opposite door lies the second wing of the gatehouse.

Kitchen:

A thoughtfully laid-out and well-equipped kitchen, featuring a dining table and chairs for 4 people, a toaster, kettle, Nespresso coffee machine, oven and 4 ring electric hobs, microwave and dishwasher.

Utility:

The practical utility area off the kitchen under the stairs is where you'll find a large free-standing fridge/freezer, high chair and stairgate, a floor mop, cushions for the outdoor chairs and even a spare dog bowl and blanket should you need it. Note: the washing machine and tumble dryer are upstairs in the en-suite bathroom.

First Floor

W.C:

Living Room:

A beautifully furnished, cosy living room, decorated in rich tones of red, navy blue, black and gold. Relax in front of the Smart TV, surrounded by interesting antique features, such as the beautiful feature tapestry that adorns the wall.

Bedroom Two:

A bright room in the arch of the gatehouse, featuring painted beams, a comfortable king-size bed, a full-length mirror, storage ottomans and bedside tables.

En-Suite Shower Room:

En-suite with wooden floors, large walk-in power shower WC, washbasin, heated towel rail, wardrobe with storage cupboard above. There is also a washing machine and tumble dryer in a concealed cupboard.

Outside

The gatehouse benefits from two small, symmetrical, gardens with a wooden table and chairs for four guests, with retractable parasol, in the courtyard patio area that separates the gardens. An outdoor tap is handy for rinsing off muddy dogs and boots after a long country walk. There is parking for two cars on the private driveway.
