After a 3 year break we are delighted to announce that Walnut Tree House is available to rent again from March 2026.
Walnut Tree House is a beautiful and spacious 16th Century Cotswold Manor House with a large enclosed garden, separate games barn and gym located in the pretty village of Nether Westcote, a short walk from an award winning pub (The Feathered Nest Inn). Perfect house for a family gathering and excellent location to explore the Cotswolds. The house is within 6 miles of Kingham, Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton on the Water and Burford.
