WHAT THE VENDORS SAY...

"We live in beautiful cottage with a definite 'WOW' factor, close to other villages and within 15 minutes of Cirencester. Our own village pub is a five minute stroll away and there are country pubs in nearby villages, all of which offer good quality food. There are walks along lanes and across fields directly from the house.

Our generous gardens to the front and rear offer a choice of seating areas; the water feature under the apple tree creates a tranquil spot to relax with a gin and tonic and in summer we often set up a trestle table under the apple trees when entertaining family and friends. Idyllic!"
