About this property
This Grade II-listed cottage is set in a quiet cul-de-sac, only 200 metres from the village’s main street and river. Bourton-on-the-Water is situated in the Windrush Valley and is celebrated as one of the most attractive villages in the Cotswolds. The shallow River Windrush flows through the village centre, spanned by low arched bridges and flanked by village greens and golden Cotswold stone buildings housing a variety of eateries. From the cottage, you can walk to numerous attractions, including Birdland, Cotswold Motoring and Toy Museum, The Model Village, The Dragonfly Maze, Greystones Farm Nature Reserve, and Hawkstone Brewery. Waymarked walking routes passing through the village include the Windrush Way, Oxfordshire Way, Diamond Way, Heart of England Way and Monarch’s Way. You can also visit characterful Cotswold villages such as Upper and Lower Slaughter (2 miles) and Stow-on-the-Wold (5 miles).
Inside, the characterful lounge invites you to unwind beside a cosy inglenook fireplace with a Clearview wood burner. Settle in for film nights on the Smart TV with DVD, stretching out on the two and three-seater leather sofas after a day exploring the village trails. The sociable kitchen/diner is designed for preparing family meals and lingering over breakfast, with space to gather and plan the day’s adventures. A convenient ground-floor bathroom features a shower over the bath and a WC, ideal for rinsing off after a long walk. Upstairs, three bedrooms offer a restful night’s sleep: a king-size room with a TV, a twin and a single. The first-floor bathroom includes a walk-in shower and a WC.
Outside, a paved, enclosed, courtyard cottage garden provides seating for relaxed drinks or simple al fresco suppers, with access to a lovely garden room. Parking is available for one car, with additional parking in a public car park in the village.
