This charming Cotswold stone cottage, elegantly furnished with a seamless blend of antique and conte

This charming Cotswold stone cottage, elegantly furnished with a seamless blend of antique and contemporary furniture, is ideally located just a short walk from the market square in Minchinhampton. The sitting room is decorated in soft colours with an exposed stone fireplace and a cosy wood burning stove. To the rear you will find a separate dining room, with seating for four guests and a modern, light filled kitchen, well-equipped to prepare some delicious meals. Bi-fold doors lead out to a private courtyard garden oasis with plenty of garden furniture. Upstairs on the first floor you will find two double bedrooms dressed in plush feather bedding with soft cloud pillows to ensure a good night's sleep; and a bathroom with a large bath and a separate shower cubicle, perfect for soaking muscles after those long walks in the Cotswold countryside. Climb a further flight of cottage stairs to the second floor and discover a cosy reading snug with vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers.

Set adjacent to Minchinhampton Common, Rock Cottage is a picture-postcard image of a quintessential, small Cotswold cottage. From its idyllic location, you are well placed to don your walking boots and explore the beautiful surrounding countryside. There are plenty of well marked footpaths that will take you through the picturesque valleys or, closer by, you have Minchinhampton and Rodborough Commons, with their famous golf course and grazing cattle. You will find an array of independent shops, restaurants, pubs, cafés and tourist attractions in the many Cotswold towns, including Stroud (with its highly regarded Saturday Farmers’ Market), Cirencester, Tetbury, Bath and Cheltenham. The area is also well served with a wealth of National Trust properties and gardens, along with the much-loved Westonbirt Arboretum.

Remarkable cottage in a cute little village
A remarkable cottage which combines historic and modern elements. Fully equipped modern kitchen, historic furniture, very comfortable beds in two bedrooms and a very cosy loft for reading and to relax. Next to the kitchen, a little garden invites to sit down and enjoy. The village is also great, horses and cows can freely walk around. Worth mentioning is a very nice bakery at the market place for having tasty breakfast. On Friday street, very close to the property, one can park the car overnight with CCTV protection. If in need, the owners are also close by and very supportive and friendly. Overall, we can fully recommend to stay in the Rock Cottage!
