Nestled in a small terrace of beautiful period cottages, right next to the river Avon in Tewkesbury, adjacent to the historic King John's Bridge, lies Avonmede Cottage.
A traditional, cottage dating back to the early 1800's, it has been tastefully furnished using William Morris and Co interiors to stay true to the period.
Lovingly restored to its former glory, the cottage is a perfect choice for those wishing to experience a quaint and dog-friendly, romantic getaway.
With original low beams, and old elm floors, it is set on multi-levels, with nooks and crannies to explore – just remember to mind your head!
Step into the inviting living/dining room, where you can curl up on the plush seating in front of the warming electric fire and select a much-loved film on the TV, ready to enjoy with your favourite tipple in hand.
Conjure up a delicious meal in the well-equipped kitchen, ready to savour at the dining table as you plan the following day's itinerary.
On warmer evenings, why not fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco out in the rear enclosed garden, followed by a relaxing dip in the bubbling hot tub?
