About this property

Beautiful peaceful village location, gorgeous views across the valley in AONB.

17th Century Cotswold stone cottage in the gorgeous village of France Lynch.

We are lucky to be in a extremely quiet location with virtually no road noise, night time is silent ( apart from the occasional wildlife) and as we are not facing directly down the Stroud Valleys we have virtually no light pollution at night time....it really is an ideal place to rest and relax and star gaze ( telescope in master bedroom) .

OUR UNIQUE SELLING POINTS :

Peace and quiet.

Beautiful Countryside green views from every window over the Golden Valleys.

Calming, warm decor and lighting specifically designed to reduce stress and anxiety and induce feelings of wellbeing and relaxation.

Bespoke pieces of furniture and artwork.

Hi speed free WiFi , flat screen TV and blue tooth speaker.

South facing garden with table , chairs and umbrella. There is also a BBQ and four sun loungers.

Picnic hamper and blanket.

Luxury cotton towels and bedding.

Fully equipped kitchen with many extras.

Comprehensive information and contact folder located in the cottage kitchen

Walking routes, historical local books, eye candy books. Playing cards and Board games for everyone and a huge variety of DVDs and novels.

Quintessential 17th Century Cotswold stone pub with lovely garden and countryside views - less than 5 mins walk also serves delicious real home made meals .

Easy access to many charming bistro pubs and acclaimed restaurants.

We live next door so whilst respecting your privacy we are there to help/advise if needed.

PLEASE take some time and read our genuine REVIEWS on this site for a view of what previous guests think of our cottage.

We are ideally located for touring but there is so much directly on the doorstep that you do not need to travel far , the area is extremely beautiful but as yet is not subject to mass tourism such as Stow on the Wold , Bibury, The Slaughters, Burford, Moreton on the Marsh etc. ( All definitely worth a visit though ).

Despite being in a quiet setting we have other local amenities such as mini supermarket, pharmacy , ATM ,takeaways, fuel station ( plus many other pubs within a 5- 10 mins drive away) .

The cottage is full of character which includes Cotswold stone interior walls, wooden floors, beams, window seats, inglenook fireplace with log burner and antique furniture. The cottage affords great views from the outside private lawned garden, kitchen, lounge and both bedrooms over fields, wooded valleys and pretty cottages both bedrooms have amazing high A framed beamed ceilings. There is one bathroom on the first floor which is close to both bedrooms, the bathroom has a walk in shower and a bath with overhead shower.

The lounge area is bright and includes flat screen TV and DVD player (there is a large variety of DVDs and books in the cottage), the lounge area leads through to a separate ambient snug/dining room with dining table for four.
The kitchen has a large range cooker, Belfast sink, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and small separate freezer.

Both bedrooms have fireplaces, great views and are of a good size, one has a double bed and the other has a king size bed both have ample storage space.

Care has been taken with soft furnishings and decor to ensure you have a relaxing comfortable holiday.

There is allocated parking directly next to the cottage on a private drive.


Chalford ( just next door to France Lynch ) is now becoming famous for its annual Party on the Hill ‘ CHALFEST ‘ which is attracting international stars such as Sophie Ellis Bextor, SisterBliss ( Faithless), Alexandra Burke and The Blockheads. The concert runs for two nights every July ( Friday for locals and Saturday open for public) . It is a ticket only event which much be purchased on the on line site. For those who don’t enjoy music don’t worry as the festival is in a central village park it closes promptly at 10.00pm both nights. The event is a five minute walk from the cottage but the cottage is tucked away so not effected by any traffic disturbance.

A gem in the Cotswolds
Very idyllic cottage in Cotswolds. It has everything you need. There are also many nice places in the area you can visite! Ann was a perfect host, willing to help and answered very quickly. Could recommend staying here for sure and would love to come back again!

Excessive tasking and difficult access
The town is pretty with great views. The property is difficult to access with narrow roads and challenging parking. Our biggest concern was that we felt we had to do excessive tasks to leave, such as take out the trash, unload the dishwasher and put away everything we used. I felt like we paid for cleaning and still had to clean. Lots of steps and small gradations, so take care.

About the host

Hosted by Ann Trigg

Host profile image
Middle age couple ( no kids).
We bought this property 6 years ago with the intention of splitting it in half and offering half the house as a holiday let as it was far too big for the two of us and we thought the location was ideal.
Finally..... we have eventually completed all the work!!

Why they chose this property

I take a great interest in interiors and enjoy creating comfortable and calming spaces to relax in. I think the property has a lot of character which incudes natural materials such as stone and wood which for me promote a feeling of well being. The views are beautiful and the location is rural and peaceful without being too isolated.

What makes this property unique

As I live next door with my partner we are very accessible if there are any problems or if anyone needs any advice about places to visit, dining out or shopping. We have sound knowledge of the local area. There are times when we not be at the property as we are frequent travellers and we have a narrow boat moored locally but we have a local lady just a phone call away if you need any assistance.
