A completely self-contained cottage built in 1522, fully equipped with fantastic views across the valley to Stroud.The cottage can sleep 2 to 4 adults and a cot is available on request. The cottage is attached to "The Yew Tree" B & B that is situated on the side of a hill overlooking the valleys to Stroud. We are surrounded by National Trust Common land. The area abounds in delightful scenery and there are many official walking routes to follow, especially along the canal where the odd hostelry is waiting to serve you! The Cotswold building, once a private ale house and subsequently a Public House, has been tastefully restored by the present owners.What is now known as the "cottage" was built in 1552. The front entrance on the ground floor was on the north side. The two windows are in their original sites, there would have been a third on the south facing wall & possibly a door to the outside privvy. The brick floor was removed when modernisation and damp proofing took place in 1990.The fireplace was in the corner by the side of the wardrobe. Where the shower is there would have been a steep staircase to the room above. This room would have been a bedroom for the whole family. The fireplace is as it was although the chimney was sealed in about 1820. To the right of the fireplace, the original wall plate can be seen, depicting the original ceiling height. The three openings on this floor were all windows. What is now the front door was converted into a barley door, probably in the early 19th century when a lot of work apparently took place. This building was used as a brewery and had no floor between the two rooms when the present owners bought it in 1978.The cottage has full gas central heating; all gas, electricity and linen is included in the rent. A full sized kitchen allows both gas and electric cooking and includes a large fridge/freezer.There are 2 remote control TV's, video player and a radio/cassette player.
