Dorsington, Warwickshire

4

The Old Post Office, a charming Grade 2 listed thatched cottage located in Dorsington, Warwickshire, is a delightful retreat that accommodates up to four guests in two spacious bedrooms. This unique property, which dates back to the late Sixteenth Century, was originally two small cottages before being transformed into a single dwelling and serving as the village Post Office from 1903. The cottage has been thoughtfully modernised to provide contemporary comforts while preserving its historical character, making it a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern amenities.

Set in the peaceful village of Dorsington, the cottage is surrounded by historic buildings and is conveniently located just seven miles from Stratford Upon Avon and less than five miles from the picturesque Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Guests can enjoy the tranquility of the village while being within easy reach of local attractions, including the beautiful Dorsington Arboretum. The property offers private, off-road parking for two vehicles, enhancing its appeal for those traveling by car.

Among the cottage's notable features is a sizeable out-building that contains a hot tub and laundry room, along with ample lockable storage for bikes and outdoor equipment. The rear garden boasts a lawn, a patio dining area, and a barbecue, making it an ideal space for relaxation and outdoor entertaining. Inside, the cottage offers a modern yet traditionally styled kitchen with an adjoining pantry, separate living and dining areas each equipped with a wood-burning stove, and a convenient downstairs w/c. The upstairs features two comfortable bedrooms with king-sized beds and a full modern bathroom, complete with an over-bath shower.

Guests should be mindful of the cottage's low ceiling beams, particularly in the living room, and the low windows on the first floor. To maintain the integrity of the timber structure and thatched roof, smoking and candles are strictly prohibited, although battery-powered candles will be provided for ambiance. The surrounding area offers a wealth of natural beauty, with attractions such as Hidcote Manor Garden and Broadway Tower Country Park nearby, along with opportunities to enjoy local events at Stratford Racecourse or Spiers and Hartwell Jubilee Stadium.
