Dating from 1800, this charming Miller's cottage stands amidst 3.5 acres of beautiful gardens and pastureland with sheep and poultry. Comfortably furnished, thoughtfully equipped, warm and cosy, it provides a peaceful rural retreat and excellent base from which to explore the Cotswolds.

Mill Cottage is fully centrally heated, double glazed and furnished and equipped to the highest standard, earning it an English Tourism Council 4 star Rating. We provide not only all linen, towels etc. but plenty of little extra touches to make you feel at home. In the sitting room a wood burning stove will keep you wonderfully cosy and warm during the colder weeks. Built of local honey-coloured stone, the cottage stands in 3 ½ acres of land, which includes a smallholding where we keep poultry and sheep. The lovely garden comprises lawns, borders, trees, roses and herbs.
