The Cobblers Cottage

About this property

The Cobblers Cottage holds a fabulous locaion in the pretty village of Southrop, close to the popular towns of Burford, Lechlade and Fairford. It makes a fantastic base for those wishing to stay-in-style while exploring the wonderful Cotswold region and all that it has to offer.

On the ground floor is the main living accomodation which comprises of a cosy lounge, a dining room and a fully equipped kitchen. Also on the ground floor is the first of the double bedrooms as well as a seperate shower room. Heading upstairs guests will find the king-size master bedroom, a second double room and a luxurious family bathroom.

Outside, there is a large garden, approximately a 1/4 of an acre in size with manicured green grass for the children to enjoy. There is also a terrace complete with dining facilities, the perfect spot for enjoying your morning cup of coffee or for dining al fresco on a summer's evening.

The owners have won a number of awards for their responsible, ethical and sustainable approach to tourism. The cottage is sustainable due to their "small steps approach", from insulating the properties, installing underfloor heating, LED lighting, purchasing LED lighting, purchasing green electricity to composting and recycling.

****2021 - The owners are thrilled to have received Listed planning permission for a new kitchen and dining area at the Cottage. They started work on the project during the lockdown and envisage that it will be completed in spring 2022.

The area of the new build is where the outside table and small patio area were. Work is only taking place when the Cottage is vacant. The area is secured for guests safety with a screen to blend into the garden. The vast majority of the garden and the Cottage is unaffected by this work, the two elements being joined together in spring 2022.***

Conveniently located just a short stroll from your front door is the quintessential English village pub, The Swan, situated on the village green it boasts an excellent restaurant.
