Watch the sun set across open fields from the comfort of your sofa. In the morning, step outside to hear the dawn chorus of bird song and the fresh smell of flowers in the air. Wild-life abounds including glimpses of the wild deer in the fields. Have breakfast in the pretty garden or inside with a choice of window views. Then, in the evening, see the silvery moon and stars in the inky-black, open, night sky. Enjoy a chilled glass of wine and take a moment just to breathe...Just bliss...
The space
The self contained cottage is flexible for a family, friends sharing, or a couple can treat themselves to the whole apartment. It works perfectly as creative space to work, a base for walking/cycling, or a place from which to explore other Cotswold villages and towns.
Set up and designed by Artist Samantha Dadd, attention to detail runs through out and the walls are graced with original paintings inspired by the immediate surrounding area.
The photographs of bluebell woods, poppy fields, and swathes of rosebay willow herb etc. are all taken, up Bredon Hill, within a 30 mins walk away. Or without even leaving your chair, the sunsets (see photographs) can be seen through the picture windows in both the sitting room and the bedroom. it's quite simply, an artist, photographer, writer, walkers or cyclists paradise. Or indeed the perfect place to just take some time out to relax and enjoy nature in all its splendour.
If you wish to explore the local area the cottage is also only 15 mins drive from historic Tewkesbury, Evesham or Winchcombe and Sudeley Castle, 25 mins from Cheltenham, Kingsholm rugby ground, Worcester, and Shakespeare’s Stratford upon Avon, 10 mins from home of the Gold Cup, Prestbury Racecourse, and dozens of delightful Cotswold villages. There is certainly plenty to do for those who want to get out and about.
The layout is a one up and one down cottage format. Both rooms have double aspects. One window looks out onto views of open countryside and the other overlooks Cotswold's gardens and orchards with trees and hills beyond.
There is also a laundry room with washing machine, tumble dryer, iron and ironing board which is available upon prior request at a small additional charge.
NB: We are currently putting the finishing touches to a complete refurbishment. So everything will be new and freshly decorated. Bookings will be taken from the beginning of March
