About this property
The Grove at Notgrove is a wonderfully secluded holiday location, offering individually styled self catering accommodation in three inter-connecting properties - a unique set up in one of (if not THE) most beautiful locations within the Cotswolds. Situated within a 1500 acres country estate, these contemporary 'holiday cottages' are the very essense of what we think a large group should want. Ample space for getting together, oodles of things to do such as hire mountain bikes, walk for miles and miles or get a beautician in, alternatively do absolutely nothing except watch the TV, get a local chef and completely relax.
Constructed within an ecologically sound framework using local craftsmen with local materials along with modern technologies such as thermal panels this is not only very attractive it is environmentally - very 'friendly'. The Notgrove Estate really have got it right and we're confident you'll agree. Big sofas, big beds, big TVs, big tables - you've got to hand it to Notgrove, this is absolutely top drawer. 22 people are sure to leave happy and recharged!There is a comprehensive range of additional services, from food prepared ready for your arrival, to cycle and tennis court hire.
The hamlet of Notgrove lies on the top of the Cotswolds in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Mentioned in the Doomsday Book, the Notgrove Estate is now a family farm of around 1500 acres. Set in some spectacular countryside it includes 400 acres of unspoilt pasture mostly in steep sided dry valleys, interspersed with mixed woodland copses. There are around 30 Cotswold stone cottages in the quiet and picturesque village, which is typical of the area. There are many, many miles of walks to be enjoyed across the estate, maps are provided in the cottages, which allow you to take in some of the most breathtaking views.
