About this property
Stunning dog friendly holiday cottage - Yew Tree Cottage, Lower Swell
Yew Tree Cottage is a gorgeous Cotswold holiday home which sleeps 6+2 guests (no children aged 17 or under permitted except for one infant aged two or under), in three well-appointed bedrooms, with the +2 option being a double bed in the annexe, with three bathrooms. Tastefully decorated, with a calming colour palette that enhances the original features of the property, the welcoming sitting room has an open fire and leads into the impressive kitchen/diner, a great space from which to admire the generous garden full of roses, peonies and mature flower beds. What better place to enjoy a spot of al fresco dining! If that wasn't enough, Yew Tree Cottage is also dog friendly.

The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates
