Foxtail Cottage, nestled in the picturesque village of Blockley, Gloucestershire, is a comfortable retreat originally constructed for workers of the local silk mills in the mid-19th century. This delightful cottage is part of a terraced row and boasts stunning rear views over a serene deer park and the rolling landscape of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Accommodating two guests, Foxtail Cottage is pet-friendly and conveniently located near local amenities, including pubs, making it an ideal getaway for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful countryside experience.
Upon entering the cottage, guests are welcomed into an inviting entrance hall that leads to a spacious dual-aspect sitting and dining area. The room features a comfortable Cotswold stone inglenook fireplace and elegant oak flooring, creating a cozy atmosphere perfect for relaxation in the evenings. The lower ground level reveals a beautifully designed kitchen equipped with an Aga, which seamlessly transitions into a bright garden room. This second sitting area is enhanced by bi-folding doors that open onto a decked area, allowing guests to enjoy the breathtaking views of the garden and surrounding countryside.
The outdoor space at Foxtail Cottage is equally impressive, with a lovely garden that descends to a large sun terrace. Here, guests can unwind on sun loungers, enjoy meals at a bistro set, or host barbecues using the Weber charcoal grill. The proximity to the deer park often provides the enchanting experience of spotting deer wandering near the terrace, adding a touch of nature's charm to the stay. This outdoor setting is perfect for leisurely afternoons and evenings spent soaking in the tranquil surroundings.
Blockley itself is a captivating golden stone village located amidst the rolling hills of the North Cotswolds, positioned conveniently between Moreton-in-Marsh and Chipping Campden. The area is rich in scenic walking routes and historical sites, including a beautiful church featured in the BBC series "Father Brown." Visitors can explore various historic buildings, a community-run café, a well-stocked shop, and two local pubs, all within walking distance. Additionally, Foxtail Cottage can be booked to accommodate up to four guests by utilizing both bedrooms, providing flexibility for larger groups seeking a memorable stay in this idyllic setting.
