    “Tannery Cottage is a beautiful old house, in easy walking distance from the centre of the very pretty town of Burford.”

    The cottage had everything we needed and was easy to park nearby. It has loads of character, although may be a little tricky for less mobile people due to steps from the road and a narrow winding staircase. The electric heating took a while to warm up and the house was cold on arrival, but fine once we put on a while. There are loads of pubs and places to eat nearby. Thoroughly recommended.

The property

Tannery Cottage is an immensely cosy Cotswold cottage, set in a quiet location near to the centre of Burford.

Internally, the owners have created a very civilised country bolthole that absolutely oozes classic English charm, with original flagstone floors, the wonky beams and oak flooring, this is a 19th century gem of a holiday cottage.

Very romantic and full of 'olde england' warmth.

The modern, open plan kitchen / diner with its view to the garden is most welcoming, while the Living Room with its woodburner is perfectly snug - and all with underfloor heating!

The bedrooms upstairs are beautifully styled with top-quality furnishings and linen each with unique touches creating a truly authentic Cotswolds experience.

This cottage is perfect for a family, ideal of a couple or two couples and we think it is hard not to imagine yourself returning to this cute hideaway time and time again.

Utterly Delightful!! Please note this property has a Good House Keeping Bond of £100, this will be shadowed at the time of booking.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

Burford

Burford is possibly one of, if not THE most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, Burford is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford which later grew to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. Located mid way between Oxford and Cheltenham (25 mins each away) it is a little haven of history and beauty that many come to fall in love with when they visit.

The 16th century Tolsey building, once the meeting place for medieval merchants, now houses The Tolsey Museum, a delightful local museum illustrating the town's social and industrial past. The church is stunning, a real gem architecturally with many interesting memorials charting some of Burford's great families. There is also the signature, on the baptisimal font, of Antony Sedley, one of the Levellers besieged in the church in 1649 - three of the ringleaders were executed by Oliver Cromwell's men in the churchyard. History awaits!

With little changing over the centuries, Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for its shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and teashops. It is an ideal base for visiting The Cotswolds area as it is within easy driving distance of popular attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Sudley Castle, Warwick Castle and several National Trust Houses and Gardens. Bourton on the Water, Bibury, Cirencester and Stow on the Wold are all with 25 minutes from the property.

Note: The stairs to the twin room are steep and therefore not suitable for the less mobile or very young, the stairs up to the first floor are also steep.

Note: This cottage is suited to 4 adults only.

Note: There are 3 bedrooms as the cottage is only suitable for four people. Customers won't have use of all 3 bedrooms, you can choose between either having two double beds, or one double and two singles.

Please note that the bed in the top bedroom can be made as a double or twin. Requests for this must be made at least two weeks prior to arrival.

Please note this property has a Good House Keeping Bond of £100, this will be shadowed at the time of booking.

Please note an initial supply of logs & kindling is provided for the property between October until end of March; additional log supplies can be purchased locally.
