Ground Floor:
Open plan living space.
Living area: Freeview Smart TV
Dining area.
Kitchen area: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge
First Floor:
Bedroom: Galleried, Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Welcome pack. Front garden with sitting out area. Decking area with garden furniture. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. Please note: There are steps in garden. Low ceiling in bedroom.. What a fabulous property! If you are looking for a complete rest and get-away from it all, this is the choice for you. In peace and tranquillity this wonderful lodge completely makes the most of the amazing location, tucked away in a peaceful corner of the owner’s grounds. There is a large decking area right in front, with table and chairs, where you can enjoy the expansive views over the Slad Valley. Inside, on the ground floor is the open plan living area with mezzanine above, featuring a sofa, Smart TV, a well-equipped kitchen area and shower room. Appreciate the natural beauty surrounding you while you dine at the glass table, admiring the view from the large window. Up the spiral staircase will lead you to the mezzanine bedroom with double bed (there is a restricted headrooom). From the ground floor there are patio doors which open to enable you to enjoy warm evenings and days while watching the wildlife.
Deer, foxes and badgers are always visiting so you should have plenty of close-up photo opportunities of these charming creatures. The gardens are a labour of love by the owners who have restored since 2014, what was an overgrown wilderness, into a thing of beauty. Steps lead down from the decking to a lawned area. At the bottom of the stone steps is a picnic table, ideal for dining beneath the stars.
If you can tear yourself away, the area is full of attractions for interesting days out. The Hazeling Hideaway lies amidst The Cotswold countryside and is close to Stroud and Painswick. Located not far from where poet Laurie Lee was brought up, you can walk in his footsteps by following the Laurie Lee Wildlife Way which takes in four Nature Reserves. The trail is marked by wooden posts carved with the famous author’s poems. Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust owns four beautiful nature reserves in the Slad Valley called Frith Wood, Snows Farm, Swifts Hill and, thanks to a very successful fundraising appeal, the new Laurie Lee Wood. People come from all over Europe to see the beauty of these valleys. The area is a magnet for walkers, explorers, and cyclists. This is a place you will want to return to again and again. Pub within a mile.
