Get away from it all in this delightful holiday retreat in the quaint village of Upton St Leonards. Sleeping two guests, it’s the ideal base for couples seeking a relaxing break in the Cotswolds. The picturesque town of Painswick is just 4 miles away and you’ll also be within easy reach of both Gloucester (3.5 miles) and Cheltenham (8.5 miles).
The old Cotswold stone barn has been lovingly converted into a welcoming holiday home. You’ll notice many of the beautiful original features have been retained, such as exposed beams and stonework. The main living space is a bright, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with a beamed ceiling and roaring wood burner to set the scene on a winter’s night. Prepare romantic dinners for two in the stylish kitchen area, which you can enjoy at the table by the window. In the evenings, snuggle up in the lounge area to watch TV or read a book. When it’s time for bed, retire to the elegant king-size bedroom for a good night’s rest. Completing the accommodation is a fabulous bathroom with a roll-top bath – the perfect place to revive weary limbs after a long walk. The cottage is nestled amongst 1 acre of landscaped shared gardens, which you are welcome to explore. There is private parking available for two cars.
