Lower Slaughter, a picturesque village in Gloucestershire, is nestled within the Heart of England and is a prime destination for visitors exploring the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Renowned for its stunning landscapes, Lower Slaughter has gained international recognition, being featured in the film "Emma" and appearing on travel documentaries, magazine covers, and postcards. The village has received numerous accolades, including titles such as "Most Beautiful Village in England" and "Most Romantic Street in Britain," making it an ideal spot for those seeking a quintessential English experience.
The unique vacation home at the center of Lower Slaughter, prominently positioned by the River Eye, sleeps up to 14 guests across six bedrooms. This residence stands out due to its breathtaking riverside setting and proximity to a variety of amenities and activities that are easily accessible, often within a short walk or a quick drive.

Guests can explore the surrounding countryside with ease, including a 15-minute walk through flower-filled meadows to the neighboring village of Upper Slaughter or along the river to Bourton-on-the-Water. The historic market town of Stow-on-the-Wold is just a five-minute drive away, while attractions like Blenheim Palace, Sudeley Castle, and Stratford-upon-Avon are also within reach. Dining options abound, with award-winning restaurants such as "Lords of the Manor" and "Slaughters Manor House" nearby, ensuring that guests can indulge in exquisite culinary experiences during their stay.
The vacation home has been thoughtfully refurbished to provide modern comforts while retaining its Cotswold charm. It features high-speed fiber internet, full cable TV in multiple locations, and a Sonos sound system with access to global radio stations. The owners pride themselves on maintaining high standards and ensuring that each property is a welcoming family home in stunning surroundings. With a strong reputation on HomeAway, guests can expect a warm and comfortable experience, enhanced by the area's natural beauty and various attractions, suitable for all ages, including family-friendly activities and local events.
