About this property

The Guinea Cottage is an attractive self contained annexe-style dwelling, set within the wonderful countryside of Wiltshire, two miles away from Great Somerford. This all-ground-floor accommodation has been designed to offer a couple or a group of friends the opportunity for a relaxing break and to explore this picturesque setting. It comes with two well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a king-size double and a double bedroom, each completed with a refreshing colour palette and carefully selected furnishings to ensure that you wake up each morning feeling refreshed. After an action-packed afternoon, look forward to spending your wind down time in the open-plan living room, which comes with everything you could possibly need for a week-long stay. Rustle up a delicious home-cooked meal in the kitchen before settling down with your loved ones around the dining table to plan the days ahead. Sink into the plush sofas and tune into the TV whilst the woodburning stove fills the room with warmth during those chilly winter evenings. If you are visiting during the summer months, spend some time in the private garden area, where you can soak up the rural surroundings from the patio area while your canine companions stretch their legs on the lawn. For those special occasions, a short stroll will bring you to a local pub, where you will be delighted to find a superb atmosphere. Alternatively, venture to Great Somerford, where you will find a shop for picking up any essentials. For those feeling active, venture to the beautiful Cotswolds AONB where you will find miles of walking and cycling routes amid rolling hills and spectacular scenery, or for a taste of history head to the National Trust property of Lacock Abbey. This superb retreat offers everything that you could possibly need for a refreshing break.

The small North Wiltshire village of Upper Seagry is found in superb countryside only five miles north of the bustling market town of Chippenham, and six miles from the ancient town of Malmesbury. Close to the southern end of The Cotswolds, this rural location provides a great base from which to explore this fascinating area. There are ample footpaths and bridleways nearby, a visit to Malmesbury - with its 12th century Benedictine Abbey - is a must, whilst a trip to the Cotswold Water Park is a real treat. Westobirt Arboretum, with its extensive collection of trees and shrubs is not to be missed. Within an easy drive can be found the picturesque village of Castle Combe, also well known for its car racing track, and the quaint National Trust village of Lacock, used as the setting for the BBC TV serial Cranford. The impressive Roman city of Bath, Bowood House, and the ancient stone circle at Avebury are also easily accessible. This really is an excellent base for a relaxing and interesting break at any time of the year.
