About this property

Traditional Cotswold Stone Cottage, Winchcombe, Cotswolds Way.

No 5 is a cosy traditional cottage in an unrivalled position in the traditional Cotswold town of Winchcombe, decorated and furnished to a high standard so you can enjoy all the comforts of home, all within just a stone’s throw from all the local amenities.
Centrally located in the heart of Winchcombe. Vineyard Street is one of the most beautiful streets in the Cotswolds and leads to the drive of Sudeley Castle. Quite literally the infamous Cotswold Way passes the front door, along with many other easily accessible national trails. We are a perfect location for walking, cycling or simply relaxing as hard as you want to!
The town is a fabulous place to enjoy a romantic break or time exploring the area with friends or family. There are many great places to eat and many lovely food shops and a deli to purchase local produce and cook up a feast to enjoy back at the cottage in the lovely garden or cosied up in front of the fire.
The owners are local and are very happy to be on hand to recommend local walks, cycle routes or places to visit and eat.
The cottage has a secure rear garden, very suitable for dogs. Equipped with garden table and chairs, sun loungers and a BBQ.
There are plenty of walks right from the doorstep. The local pubs are all very dog welcoming ...

We found this to be the quintessential Cotswold VRBO. LOVELY cottage complete with back yard garden that is just about magical. Located on the street that leads to Sudely Castle (couple of blocks walk from front door). Numerous walking trails close, 1/2 block from restaurants/pubs. Very accomodating host. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay at no. 5. The weather was excellent so we enjoyed relaxing in the sunny garden and lots of walking around Winchcombe. It really is a lovely location both because it is the town so good access to facilities and walks all from the front door.

Hello, my husband Jim and I have lived in Winchcombe for since 2003 and we love the town, it has a great community spirit, very friendly, great pubs, restaurants, shops, deli, galleries and antique emporiums.
Jim is a really keen mountain biker (I dabble on the easier trails!) and we love walking our lovely pointer Tatti (short for Taitttinger!) and socialising with our friends. We love welcoming guests to the cottage and will be happily on hand for any advice required by our visitors. Any questions you have about the cottage and local area, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be delighted to help ... Emma and Jim

Why they chose this property

We already live in the town and wanted to buy and second property as a holiday let business... Vineyard St is one of the most beautiful Cotswolds Streets and leads to the gates of Sudeley Castle

What makes this property unique

Vineyard Street is an unrivaled position in our small town, you can park for free on the street in front of the cottage and then everything is in very easy walking distance. Winchcombe is a truly unique town, where visitors quickly feel like locals and get to enjoy a real part of life in a Cotswold town
