Description

Step inside and you'll find an attractively furnished cottage filled with beautiful antiques, pieces of art and an impressive collection of books, chosen by Lady Ashcombe. The Guest Cottage sits within its own meandering garden, bordered by woodland and a small stream, and offers rural views and easy access to the entrance of Sudeley Castle.

The ground floor of the cottage includes a charming country-style living room with ample seating for all, antique treasures, plus a TV and DVD player. Large windows give lovely views over the front garden and down to the tree-lined walls of the Sudeley Castle grounds. There's also a well-equipped kitchen with everything needed for a self-catering stay. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms including one with a free-standing bathtub.

Outside the cottage is enveloped in a glorious garden, a lavender-lined path leads to the front door, dissecting two emerald, green lawns. To the rear is an expansive garden which leads to a deciduous woodland and a small stream, it's a magical spot to explore. The ancient town of Winchcombe offers a wealth of places to eat and drink and is a 10-minute walk or a 2-minute drive down the road.
