PLEASE take some time and read our genuine REVIEWS on this site for a view of what previous guests think of our cottage.
We are ideally located for touring but there is so much directly on the doorstep that you do not need to travel far , the area is extremely beautiful but as yet is not subject to mass tourism such as Stow on the Wold , Bibury, The Slaughters, Burford, Moreton on the Marsh etc. ( All definitely worth a visit though ).
Despite being in a quiet setting we have other local amenities such as mini supermarket, pharmacy , ATM ,takeaways, fuel station ( plus many other pubs within a 5- 10 mins drive away) .
The cottage is full of character which includes Cotswold stone interior walls, wooden floors, beams, window seats, inglenook fireplace with log burner and antique furniture. The cottage affords great views from the outside private lawned garden, kitchen, lounge and both bedrooms over fields, wooded valleys and pretty cottages both bedrooms have amazing high A framed beamed ceilings. There is one bathroom on the first floor which is close to both bedrooms, the bathroom has a walk in shower and a bath with overhead shower.
The lounge area is bright and includes flat screen TV and DVD player (there is a large variety of DVDs and books in the cottage), the lounge area leads through to a separate ambient snug/dining room with dining table for four.
The kitchen has a large range cooker, Belfast sink, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and small separate freezer.
Both bedrooms have faux fireplaces, great views and are of a good size, one has a double bed and the other has a king size bed both have ample storage space.
Care has been taken with soft furnishings and decor to ensure you have a relaxing comfortable holiday.
There is allocated parking directly next to the cottage on a private drive.
We have two pubs in the village which are walkable (one is three minute walk and other one is ten minutes ) and both serve food, we also have a cafe which is also a ten minute easy walk, it is close to the furthest pub. They are open daily from 10am and serve breakfasts, lunch and delicious cakes but unfortunately they currently do not serve breakfast or lunch on Sundays just drinks and cakes.
It is advisable to book ahead in either pub if you want to eat:
3 mins walk - The KingsHead Pub, France Lynch, Stroud,
10 mins walk - The Old Neighbourhood Inn, Chalford, Stroud.
Chalford ( just next door to France Lynch ) is now becoming famous for its annual Party on the Hill ‘ CHALFEST ‘ which is attracting international stars such as Sophie Ellis Bextor, SisterBliss ( Faithless), Alexandra Burke and The Blockheads. The concert runs for two nights every July ( Friday for locals and Saturday open for public) . It is a ticket only event which much be purchased on the on line site. For those who don’t enjoy music don’t worry as the festival is in a central village park it closes promptly at 10.00pm both nights. The event is a five minute walk from the cottage but the cottage is tucked away so not effected by any traffic disturbance.
