Stroll through the rolling hills of Worcestershire and Gloucestershire when you retreat to this delightful cottage at Beckford. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom hideaway, which is 6 miles from Tewkesbury, is perfect for small families and couples eager to explore the Chilterns, Cotswolds and Malvern Hills. With a beautiful garden, where you can dine out in the fresh air and sunshine, this is the ideal place for escaping the hustle and bustle of daily life and indulging in some wildlife watching.
Let yourselves into the pretty, red-brick abode to find accommodation that is bright and welcoming. Head through to the kitchen/diner to put the kettle on for a cup of tea and start preparing the next meal using the delicious ingredients you have sourced locally. Dine together at the table in here and linger over a bottle of wine afterwards, opening the door to the garden on fine summer evenings. Unwind together through in the comfortable lounge as well. Here you can play games, watch TV and make plans for the following day. There is also a WC at ground-floor level. As night arrives, climb the stairs, past the attractive latticed window, to find your bedrooms. Both rooms feature king-size beds. The family bathroom is also at this level. Wander out into the sunshine at every opportunity. Look out over the pond, watch the birds in the trees and soak up the serenity.
Visit Sudeley Castle, 7.5 miles away, where you can walk through the immaculate gardens and see the final resting place of Tudor Queen, Katherine Parr. Venture 10 miles to the picture-postcard Cotswold village of Broadway and walk up to its famous tower. Head 9 miles into Cheltenham to browse in the boutiques and galleries and perhaps have a day at the races.
