Stonewell Cottage is a beautifully presented 19th century barn conversion which sleeps four guests, in two elegantly furnished bedrooms, with two bathrooms.
This charming Cotswold stone property has a number of stunning character features including exposed beams, exposed Cotswold stone walls, a cosy wood burning stove and a glass covered stone well after which the property is named.
These features have been complemented by modern facilities such as wireless internet access, two Freeview TVs and a well-equipped kitchen.
At the front of the property there is a pretty patio area which offers breathtaking rural views, and off-street parking for up to two cars is available on the gravel driveway.
Stonewell Cottage is tucked away in Maugersbury, a peaceful hamlet located almost 200ft above the valley bottom below and surrounded by glorious countryside.
There are numerous walks and cycle routes on its doorstep, many of which pass through the much loved market town of Stow-on-the-Wold, just half a mile from the cottage.
Stow is home to a number of independent shops, tearooms, country inns and restaurants, and the town has preserved many of its notable historic features including the bustling market square and the ‘tures’, narrow alleyways which were once used to channel the many sheep to market.
Maugersbury is well-placed for exploring the many picturesque towns and villages of the North Cotswolds such as Moreton-in-Marsh, Winchcombe, Chipping Campden, Broadway and Bourton-on-the-Water, all benefitting from well-regarded pubs, restaurants and tourist attractions.
Further afield destinations such as Stratford-upon-Avon, Oxford and Blenheim Palace are also within easy reach for day trips.
Stonewell Cottage is the perfect retreat for a family or for a gathering of friends who are looking for a relaxing break in the heart of the beautiful Cotswold countryside.
