2 Bed Cottage in Hilmarton

About this property

Set in the peaceful Wiltshire countryside near Hilmarton, this barn conversion is an ideal base for friends or family looking to slow down, unwind and explore some of England’s finest rural landscapes. Surrounded by rolling farmland and quiet country lanes, it’s well placed for walks, cycling and relaxed evenings in nearby village pubs. 4 miles away, the town of Calne offers shops, cafes and everyday essentials. The historic market towns of Marlborough (14 miles) and Devizes (12 miles) make a great day out, with independent shops, traditional pubs and canal-side walks. Head to Avebury Stone Circle (11 miles), where ancient history meets sweeping downland views. Closer still, Bowood House and Gardens (6.5 miles) offers parkland, woodland walks and gardens to roam at a slow pace. The surrounding North Wessex Downs provide endless opportunities for walking, cycling and taking in the scenery.

Inside, the open-plan living area has been thoughtfully arranged for easy stays, with a large sofa, a farmhouse-style dining table and a breakfast bar that works well for casual meals or morning coffee. The fully equipped kitchen includes an oven, hob, fridge-freezer and coffee machine, giving you everything you need for a self-catering break, while characterful decor and finishing touches bring warmth throughout. There are two king-size bedrooms (which can also be arranged as twin rooms), alongside a contemporary shower room and a separate bathroom with a roll-top bath for an added touch of indulgence.

Outside, the private patio area includes seating for drinks or dining, backed by far-reaching views. The wider shared grounds include seating under a pergola and a large lawn. Parking for two cars makes arrival and departure a breeze. There are two other properties on-site that can be booked together for larger groups.
