Honeysuckle Cottage, nestled in Blockley, Gloucestershire, is a charming accommodation that comfortably sleeps four guests across its two bedrooms. Constructed from the region's characteristic mellow-hued Cotswold stone, this traditional stone cottage is part of a tranquil terrace that once housed farmworkers. The property boasts stunning views of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), with picturesque hedge-lined fields at the front and expansive rural vistas at the back, where guests may even spot herds of deer and birds of prey in the surrounding area.
The cottage retains many of its original features, showcasing deep-set stone mullioned windows, stone fireplaces, and exposed stone walls that add to its character and charm. Spanning three levels, the ground floor welcomes visitors with a light-filled living room equipped with a wood-burning stove, while the compact family bathroom features a roll-top bath and rainfall shower. The lower ground floor offers a cozy dining room with an original flagstone floor, leading to a well-equipped kitchen that provides all necessary amenities for a self-catering stay.
On the first floor, guests will find two inviting bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom features a king-sized bed, which can be converted to twin beds upon request, along with ample storage options. The second bedroom, equally charming and characterful, offers a wooden king-size bed and delightful views over the countryside, highlighted by the original cottage beams on its walls. Each room is designed to ensure a comfortable and restful experience for guests.
The outdoor space at Honeysuckle Cottage is equally enchanting, featuring a beautifully landscaped rear garden adorned with roses, shrubs, and a charming decking area. This space descends to a seating area with a table and chairs, perfect for enjoying morning coffee while observing the wildlife, or for al fresco dining under the stars. Located in the heart of the Cotswolds, the cottage provides easy access to nearby attractions, including the natural beauty of Broadway Tower Country Park and cultural highlights such as the Silk Mill and Court Barn Museum, making it an ideal retreat for nature lovers and culture enthusiasts alike.
