Apple Cottage is a two bedroom charming cottage, based in picturesque Snowhill

Situated in the beautiful village of Snowshill, Apple Cottage is not short of character with its stone open fire place, mullion windows and exposed beams. Tastefully furnished, thoughtfully equipped and with stunning far reaching views, Apple Cottage is the ideal base for one or two couples, or a family with older children.

The majority of this characterful accommodation is situated on the ground floor, including a cosy sitting room with dining area; a light filled pretty kitchen; a useful utility area; along with the family bathroom with separate cloakroom/wc; and bedroom one, complete with en-suite shower room. Upstairs, spacious bedroom two occupies the entire first floor and benefits from dual aspect windows and a comfy king-size bed. Outside, the charming cottage garden is mature and very well-stocked; the perfect spot to enjoy those enviable views

Apple Cottage is set within the heart of Snowshill, a secluded village awash with traditional pretty cottages. Perched on top of the Cotswold escarpment with heavenly views across the Cotswolds, this is the English countryside at its best. The village is less than 3 miles from beautiful Broadway, often referred to as the 'Jewel of the Cotswolds', packed with independent traders, tea rooms, pubs, shops, art galleries and restaurants.

The local friendly pub, the Snowshill Arms, is in stumbling distance and is a perfect ending to a day out sightseeing in this beautiful part of the world. Or walker’s can set off from the front door and enjoy the ramble across to Stanton, where you can enjoy a well earned pub lunch and enjoy the amazing views at The Mount pub (booking essential).

A short walk from the property takes you to the National Trust's Snowshill Manor House and Gardens and tea room. Just up the road is the Cotswold Lavender Farm along with a delightful tearoom and shop selling the range of the farm's lavender products. The lavender flowers from June, and for several weeks the rows of plants make a spectacular sight.

The Perfect Cottage in the English Countryside
Our stay at Apple Cottage was absolutely perfect! The cottage and surrounding gardens are straight out of a picture book and the location is perfectly appointed for getting to all the nearby Cotswold villages. When we return to England, we will definitely book it again!

Apple Cottage in the Cotswold's
I can't begin to describe the most wonderful place to stay. I wouldn't change a thing about the cottage. If you look up cozy in the dictionary there would be a picture of Apple Cottage. I'm on my way home to start to save up to come again. Maybe next year we could spend Christmas at the Cottage. When I die if I get to heaven, it will be in Snowshill.

Absolutely beautiful and charming
We loved our stay in Apple Cottage! The house is a perfectly charming stone cottage in a stunning countryside setting. We visited for a few days in late July. Views stretch from the flower-filled patio across a small orchard in the garden, to rolling green hills and sheep pastures. The interior of the house is full of character, including a sweet living/dining room with comfortable chairs and working fireplace, a tidy kitchen stocked with the necessities (milk, eggs, bread, butter, cheese, marmalade, and fruit), two nice bedrooms, and two bathrooms. We met the hosts, who could not have been more lovely and helpful. Down some steps and a small hill, the gardens include a small pond and lawn. The tiny town of Snowshill is quiet and picturesque, with a friendly pub for dinner or drinks less than a 5-minute walk from the house. We did a lovely 3-hour walk through the countryside right from the house using the detailed trail map provided. Snowshill is the perfect location for exploring local towns including Chipping Campden and Bourton-on-the Water. We highly recommend Apple Cottage!

Cotswold Heaven
This was our fourth vacation in the Cotswolds and by far the best, due almost exclusively to the the charm and beauty of Apple Cottage. The house itself is lovely and well situated with a view from the bedroom that is beautiful and inspiring, a quintessential Cotswold panorama. As the name implies, the cottage has several apple trees, and they were loaded with ripe, succulent apples for the picking. Beautiful fireplace with wood supplied was a huge bonus for us on chilly evenings. The property managers are perfect, ever helpful but never intrusive. You can drive a short distance into Broadway to pick up food or other basics from a variety of suppliers, including the outstanding Collins Butcher Shop. Walking trails abound as do historical sites and venues for enjoying nature, like Hidcote Gardens or Batsford Arboretum. And at the end of long day, you can drop into the charming Snowshill Arms pub for a pint and decent meal. If we return to the area, Apple Cottage will be the first choice for accommodations.
