The Coppice, Ashton under Hill

About this property

The Coppice is a beautiful, Grade II listed period property, nestled under Bredon Hill in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This half-timbered property boasts plenty of period charm yet has all the modern comforts you’d look for in a holiday home.

With exposed wooden beams, an Inglenook fireplace and elm floors in some of the rooms, The Coppice has been extended and renovated over the years to create a delightful holiday property. With its elegant furniture, the drawing room wouldn’t look out of place in a period drama, yet there are lovely modern touches too, such as the light and airy conservatory looking out onto the mature gardens or the well-equipped kitchen with its Nespresso machine and Loewe sound unit.

The Coppice is set at the foot of Bredon Hill, which was immortalised in the poet A E Housman’s ‘A Shropshire Lad’. Bredon is one of the outlying hills of the Cotswolds, and the opportunities for walking, mountain biking and horse riding are endless. You can explore for hours without coming across a road! Guests are welcome to bring their own horses if they wish, subject to arrangement.

With mature gardens and a paddock beyond, you could spend many a happy hour just looking out on the views from the conservatory, then perhaps wander out to The Star Inn in nearby Ashton under Hill for some great pub food. If you want to stroll further afield, the villages of Conderton and Elmley Castle also have welcoming pubs, so wherever your walk or adventure takes you, you’ll be able to quench the thirst in a lovely country inn.

Additional Information:

Three well behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge).

Highchairs, cots and a stairgate available on request.

As The Coppice dates back to the 1400s, there are some low beams and uneven floor boards.

The owners keep horses in the stables and surrounding paddocks, so please keep the gates shut. Guests can bring their own horses as stabling and grazing available (subject to reasonable notice).

You will have exclusive use of the house throughout your stay. The owners will only visit if you need anything or may come to see the horses which are stabled across the yard, or ride in the Manege. The owners do need to keep an access through the driveway in order for stable help to access the stables.

Please note that internet access is offered at this property for recreational purposes only and is not meant for business use. Speed/service may vary depending on the package obtained by the owner which is provided to guests free of charge. Should guests experience difficulties or loss of use, neither the owner nor Cotswolds Hideaways will be held responsible.
