Foxtail Cottage, located in the picturesque village of Blockley, Gloucestershire, offers a charming retreat for up to four guests. Originally constructed for silk mill workers in the mid-19th century, this beautifully renovated three-storey cottage combines historical charm with modern amenities. Its enviable position provides stunning views over a deer park and the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making it an ideal getaway throughout the seasons. The cottage features a stunning Cotswold stone fireplace, an open fire, an Aga, and a delightful garden with a sun terrace, creating a cozy atmosphere for relaxation.
Upon entering the cottage, guests are welcomed into an impressive dual-aspect sitting and dining area that boasts oak flooring and tasteful furnishings, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. The lower ground level reveals a beautifully designed kitchen equipped with an Aga, which leads into a bright garden room that serves as a second sitting area. This space is enhanced by bi-folding doors that open to a decked area overlooking the garden, allowing guests to enjoy the breathtaking views. The garden features a large sun terrace with sun loungers, a bistro set, a Weber charcoal barbecue, and a chiminea, making it a perfect spot for outdoor dining and relaxation, with the chance to see deer from the nearby park.
On the first floor, the two elegantly presented bedrooms cater to couples or families, with a modern shower room featuring a spacious walk-in shower. Blockley itself is a delightful golden stone village surrounded by the picturesque North Cotswolds, offering numerous walking trails and local attractions. The village is notable for its historic sites, including a charming church featured in the BBC series "Father Brown," as well as a community-run café, a well-stocked shop, and two local pubs within walking distance. Additionally, nearby attractions include the towns of Stow-on-the-Wold, Broadway, and Bourton-on-the-Water, along with various renowned gardens such as Mill Dene Gardens, which are open to visitors during the spring months.
Foxtail Cottage also accommodates guests wishing to book a stay with just one double bedroom for a more intimate experience. Families with children are welcome, with amenities such as a highchair, travel cot, and stairgates available upon request. A well-behaved dog is permitted for an additional charge, with restrictions to the lower ground floor and garden. The property features a lockable gun cabinet for guests interested in clay pigeon shooting. It is important to note that the cottage has some uneven floors on the first floor due to its age, and internet access is provided for recreational use only, with no guarantee of speed or reliability. Overall, Foxtail Cottage presents a unique blend of historic charm and modern comfort in a stunning Cotswold setting.
