For a day trip, head to Stroud (5.5 miles) - known as the ‘Covent Garden of the Cotswolds’ - to discover striking architecture, a lively farmers’ market, vintage stalls, and eclectic shops. Walkers will relish exploring the Stroud Valley that surrounds the property and town, following the Cotswold Way to capture the best views this beautiful area has to offer.

Inside, large, light-filled rooms, marble flooring, and crisp white interiors add to the splendour of this incredible home. Approach via the gated driveway and step into the formal entrance hall, featuring a sweeping staircase, original cornicing, and easy access to all ground-floor rooms.

Guests can choose between two lounges, both offering exceptionally comfortable seating, a wood burner, and windows framing views of the grounds. The capacious kitchen is centred around an impressive island—a handy place to perch for coffee or casual meals - while the adjacent formal dining room is perfect for sit-down dinners.

A boot room with back-door access and a convenient ground-floor WC complete the downstairs layout. Ascend the grand staircase to the first floor and discover five enviable bedrooms, each as spacious and inviting as the last.

The master bedroom is a true retreat, featuring a super-king-size bed and an en-suite bathroom with a roll top bath - ideal for soaking after a day of adventure. The four additional bedrooms offer a second super-king-size, two zip-and-link beds (which can be arranged as twins upon request), and a family room with a king-size and single bed.
