About this property

Tucked away in the charming town of Northleach, within the scenic county of Gloucestershire, sits this charming mid-terrace property, Stable Cottage. Set over three floors and positioned just paces from the town’s amenities, this is an ideal base for two couples or a family looking to holiday in this fabulous region. Enter the stylish kitchen/diner, where you’ll be greeted by an exposed stonework wall and a fabulous array of integrated appliances, including an oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and even a washing machine, so you can pop your muddy gear on a spin. Look forward to serving your culinary treats at the dining table, before heading to the first floor where the sitting room awaits, complete with a plush sofa, armchair and TV, ideal for those cosy movie nights. The bedrooms are positioned on the second floor, both comprising of a double bed and housing ample storage for your personal items. Begin the morning with a refreshing rinse in the bathroom before heading into the local town, exploring the range of independent shops and friendly supermarkets where you can grab the ingredients for a tasty breakfast. If you’d rather not cook, there are a good choice of pubs on offer, including the ‘Mr & Mrs Smith’ approved establishment and ‘The Wheatsheaf’, which was recently named the 2021 pub of the year. Opposite the property is a short pathway leading to a recreational ground with cricket pitch, tennis courts and fine walks, while the scenic splendour of the Cotswolds is nearby, perfect for exploring picturesque hills and meadows dotted with villages, grand residences and castles. Be sure to visit the pretty village of Bourton-on-the-Water, known as the Venice of the Cotswolds, it offers a wealth of attractions and shops amongst its honey-coloured stone architecture and calming village scenes. There is also the vibrant market town of Stow-on-the-Wold, bursting with fascinating history dating back to the 11th century, and the medieval town of Burford, home to a series of independent shops, galleries, restaurants, and tea rooms, plus the Cotswolds Wildlife Park which is a great choice for a day out. Well positioned for accessing the many delights of the Cotswolds, Stable Cottage ticks all the boxes for a memorable retreat with family and friends.

Northleach is located 8 miles north-east of Cirencester, 10 miles south-west of Stow-on-the-Wold, and about 7 miles from Burford, on the Roman route known as the Fosse Way (A429). It is an ideal starting point for visiting these popular and lovely destinations. Northleach was formerly a bustling market town known across Europe as a significant hub for the Cotswold wool trade! The affluent wool merchants paid for the fifteenth-century church of St Peter and St Paul, which was erected using stone taken from the town's quarry and what is now the Market Square. The village has recently been featured in a number of films, notably the 2015 film Casual Vacancy.

    The pillows were particularly comfortable! The double stairs would always be a bit of a challenge for anyone who might be disabled, but I'm sure this is made clear in the description. The directions about how to reach the Cottage however are not accurate. Stable Cottage sits opposite a road sign which says College Row but the description talks about the Cottage being on the left of this one way road, road rather than the right so a minor tweak on that front would help late arrivals like ourselves! Thanks

    It is very well located in a lovely village which offers everything you need. On arrival we discovered there was no Internet and after telephoning the local contact we were contacted by Sykes Cottages who offered us a 10% discount as compensation. The internet was reconnected shortly after but was so slow as to be almost impossible to use. We had to rely on the local coffee shop who had free WIFI to use the internet. We also had water dripping on us in bed from the small skylight window above which stained the pillow. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were really happy that we were in easy reach of all the local must see places.

    Everything you need and more. Clean throughout and had the best sleep while we were there. Will most definitely be returning.
