Set in the grounds of a magnificent Cotswolds Manor House, The Compton Cottage is every inch the rural idyll. A timeless property in a location that is simply breath-taking. Nestling on the bank of the River Coln deep in the Cotswold hills, surrounded by farmland and nearby woods sits this beautiful, romantic gem. Once inside you will find a very special home. A contemporary, newly refurbished converted stable block that’s filled with designer furniture and fabrics. The neat touches throughout are as welcoming to a couple as for a family. Original beams and features remain, reminding you of the history of this grand old manor. Downstairs the shaker style kitchen and dining room finished to a very high spec is a perfect place to cook and relax. Upstairs is the living room, two luxury bedrooms and bathroom. All with uninterrupted views across the countryside. You could not be better located for a Cotswolds weekend or holiday retreat. Your dog is welcome too, with miles and miles of walks on your doorstep. As Cotswold cottages come this is exceptional! A choice you will thoroughly enjoy and no doubt return to.
Northleach IS just off the Roman road, the Fosse Way (A429) 8 miles north-east of Cirencester and 10 miles south-west of Stow-on-the-Wold, and about 7 miles from Burford - making it an excellent place to travel from if you're looking to visit these popular and attractive places. Northleach was at one time an important market town, celebrated throughout Europe as a major centre for the Cotswold wool trade! The fifteenth-century church of St Peter and St Paul, paid for by the wealthy wool merchants, was built with stone dug from the quarry in the town itself and what is now the Market Square. More recently the village has been used in a number of recent films, including the Casual Vacancy of 2015.

Very well equipped. Wouldnât hesitate to recommend it, particularly if youâre a dog owner, but be aware the cottage doesnât have many large windows and hence it has limited natural light and views. Might also benefit from a Bluetooth speaker, although probably not high on other peopleâs list of priorities with both Sky and Freeview on offer.

It is extrememly well-appointed - one of the best we have ever stayed in. From the fresh flowers, welcome food and drink and Jo Malone toiletries to the tasteful furnishings with high quality bed linen, fluffy towels and comfy beds, there is nothing we would change. It smelt lovely as we walked in, and was spotlessly clean. There was snow outside but it was very cosy and welcoming. Sky TV was included which was a treat for us! The cottage was great for our dog, with a safe enclosed garden and a practical utility room. The rolling Cotswolds countryside is beautiful with plenty of walks and pubs on the doorstep. We had our toddler grandson with us - there was a good quality highchair, travel cot and stairgate, with a small selection of thoughtfully chosen children's books and soft toys which he loved. In fact, he wanted to take one of them home....! The dining kitchen is on the ground floor whilst the main living space is upstairs, so the stairgate was essential. This layout may not suit everyone, but it worked well for us. Claire the housekeeper was very responsive and helpful, but unintrusive which is just the way we like it. We had to shorten our stay at short notice and the owners were very understanding, which we appreciated. Thank you for a wonderful stay - I'm sure we will return.

Itâs beautifully presented and everything has been thought of to make your stay go well. We loved the cosy living room and the beds were super comfortable. The kitchen is very well set up too. Claire the housekeeper was brilliant at communication whenever we had any questions. The area is beautiful and itâs lovely and quiet. We hope to return at some point in the future. Would highly recommend
