The Barracks, nestled in the picturesque village of Aldsworth, Gloucestershire, is a stunning country holiday home that accommodates up to six guests. This charming property, once a traditional Cotswold farmhouse owned by the Sherborne Estate, has been beautifully transformed since its purchase in 1978. The home is surrounded by breathtaking scenery typical of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, featuring a magnificent willow tree and a well-kept field, with the historic St Bartholomew's Church peeking over the hill, adding to the idyllic atmosphere of the location.
Inside, The Barracks boasts a spacious layout that includes a dining room, living room, and kitchen on the ground floor, along with three inviting bedrooms on the upper level. The living room stands out with its grand inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove, complemented by an array of intriguing artworks that create a serene, gallery-like ambiance. The kitchen is both elegant and functional, equipped with modern amenities and a breakfast area, while the dining room features a lovely circular table, perfect for shared meals. The three bedrooms consist of two doubles—one with an en-suite—and a twin room, ensuring comfort and privacy for all guests.
The outdoor space at The Barracks is equally enchanting, featuring a beautifully landscaped garden divided into distinct areas. Guests can enjoy al fresco dining under the grapevine-draped pergola or engage in games of croquet and badminton on the manicured lawn. The garden is designed for relaxation and recreation, with ample space for children and sporty guests to play, all while enjoying picturesque views of the surrounding countryside and the charming church. The tranquil setting is further enhanced by delightful water features that provide a calming soundtrack to outdoor activities.
Additional amenities of The Barracks include a well-appointed entrance hall, a cloakroom, and a library area on the landing stocked with books for leisurely reading. The home retains its historical charm with features such as original exposed timbers and polished Cotswold limestone flooring, while also providing modern comforts. With its unique blend of rustic elegance and contemporary convenience, The Barracks serves as a perfect retreat for families or groups looking to unwind and explore the natural beauty of the Heart of England.
