About this property

Bourton-On-The-Water 3 miles. This cosy annexe is attached to the owner's home, in a peaceful, rural location in Church Westcote near Bourton-On-The-Water, within the Cotswolds AONB. The property sleeps two (but also has an extra daybed in the double room for an extra person if need be) and is ideal for a retreat to the picturesque Cotswolds countryside. The property has a driveway with parking for one car, and the entrance is down the side of the property through a gate. Enter into the sunroom/ conservatory, where you can enjoy dinner with a view or curl up on the sofa with a good book and enjoy a moment of peace and quiet. The compact but well-equipped kitchen has all of the necessary appliances to cook up delicious meals for your loved one, after which, you can relax in the sitting room on the reclining chair or sofa, enjoying the Smart TV and your favourite Netflix or Amazon Prime shows, as the warming electric fire heats the room.

The village of Bledington is also nearby, offering a traditional pub and a 12th Century church, as well as being a popular location for walkers, due to its location within the Evenlode Valley and being part of the Oxfordshire Way route. The market town of Stow-on-the-Wold sits on top of an 800ft hill, at the junction of the main roads running through the Cotswolds, including the Roman Fosse Way, which runs from Exeter to Lincoln. There is a selection of shops and restaurants, as well the Medieval St Edward's Church, historic market square and Fosse Gallery, while the 17th Century Chastleton House, owned by the National Trust, is within easy reach. Chipping Norton rests within the Cotswold Hills, with a museum and an open air swimming pool, as well as being close to the Fairytale Farm attraction and just a few miles away is the university city of Oxford, which is a must visit. Another popular tourist attraction is also within reach - the Cheltenham Festival is a meeting in the National Hunt racing calendar, with race prize money second only to the Grand National; the four-day festival takes place annually in March usually coinciding with St Patrick's Day and is particularly popular with Irish visitors. Molly's Bit is a lovely couple's retreat for exploring the Cotswolds, no matter what you choose to do.

    Cosy and warm but very spacious and well equipped. Perfect for the two of us with our labrador. Lovely hosts. Set in a beautiful village and a great base for exploring the Cotswolds.

  • Garry

    Comfy, cosy place, all the bits and pieces you would need. Leg-stretching room for the pooches out back and a nice field across the way. Location wise, this is a great spot for taking on the Cotswolds. Bourton, Stow and the Slaughters are only minutes away. Thanks to All.

  • Samantha

    The (fully enclosed) garden is shared but you have full access to it whenever you want during your stay, which was fantastic for ease of letting the dog out when needed. I stayed here for a couple of nights and it felt like a home away from home the second I stepped foot through the door. Would definitely recommend and look to book here again in the future, thank you!
