About this property

Cotswold View is a homely, contemporary self-contained property located on the ground floor of a unique eco-friendly farmhouse, offering spectacular south-easterly views across the beautiful Windrush Valley. Sleeping up to four guests, in two homely bedrooms, Cotswold View is perfect for a couple or a small family seeking a lovely break in the heart of the Cotswolds countryside, close to one of England's most beautiful villages, Bourton-on-the-Water.

As you arrive on the property grounds you will be wowed by the wrap-around farm that extends down a grassy hill to the enclosed paddocks beyond, where off-road parking spaces greet you on arrival, before you step up to the front door and marvel at the miles of unspoilt countryside views before you.

Enter the front door into the open-plan living space which is a great room for socialising with your family, has lovely floor-to-ceiling windows allowing the sunlight to flood in and comes well-equipped with everything you will need during your stay to make delicious home-cooked meals and enjoy them gathered with your loved ones at the dining table underfloor heating warms you on a cold evening, as you overlook the rolling hills of Windrush Valley beyond.

Conveniently located on the ground floor you will find two homely bedrooms; the master boasts floor-to-ceiling windows providing you with stunning views across the valley and hosts twin beds (can be changed to super-king-size on request), and the second bedroom, located at the rear of the property, contains a welcoming double bed and has a unique wall separating the room from the main living area which allows in natural light.

Once you’ve gotten some well-earned rest, kick-start your day with an invigorating rinse in the bathroom, before joining your group for a steaming cup of coffee at the garden table to plan the day ahead; here you will find an array of wildlife that visits the farm and calming views over the Valley.

    The accommodation was spacious, extremely well equipped and spotless. The location was perfect, very conveniently situated for exploring, close to the village of Bourton-on-the-Water but far enough away from any hustle and bustle so was completely peaceful and tranquil with wonderful views overlooking the valley, enriched by the joys of watching the bird life, including partridges & pheasants right outside. We also spotted deer & rabbits. The owners who live on site were incredibly helpful and friendly. We will return, and would definitely recommend.

    The apartment is extremely cosy and warm. The beds really comfy with lovely white bedding. The whole place is great and the views of the bird feeders truly amazing. Its position is great with a walk of under a mile into Bourton. The owners are really friendly and suggested places to visit. Can’t wait to visit again.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Cotswold View. The underfloor heating in the living room/kitchen area was really special. Sometimes it was too warm!!! The apartment was well equipped but there are one or two things that would make a difference. A dish drainer to allow washed dishes to drain (obviously!!), a container basket in the shower cubicle for shampoo and shower gel, a couple of hooks to hang dressing gowns. These are observations, not complaints.
