The Cotswolds are characterised by attractive small towns and villages, built of the underlying Cotswold stone (a yellow oolitic limestone).

Bracken Cottage is one of a row of former silk weaver’s cottages set on a quiet road in the village of Blockley. The front door opens directly into the ground floor living area:
Living room/dining room/kitchen: This homely open plan living space has a cosy wood burning stove, wooden beams and a stable door with views across to the fields beyond. This room contains a sofa, a window seat, a Smart TV, a fold away dining table with seating for two, an electric oven, four-ring gas hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, cafetière, kettle and toaster.
Steep stairs lead up from the living area to the first floor landing, off which are the following rooms:
Bedroom 2: A smart room with exposed painted beams, a king size bed, bedside tables, full length mirror and chest of drawers (please note the chest of drawers is not for guest use);
Family bathroom: Decorated in a contemporary style, this spacious bathroom has a bath with handheld shower attachment, toilet, wash basin and a cupboard containing a washing machine.
Further steep stairs lead directly into the master bedroom:
Master bedroom: A characterful and cosy room in the eaves which contains a king size bed, Smart TV, chest of drawers and vanity mirror. The bedroom leads into the ensuite bathroom which contains a walk-in rain shower with handheld shower attachment, toilet and wash basin.
The stable door leads from the kitchen into a wonderful landscaped garden with uninterrupted views of the countryside. The patio area directly outside the kitchen has a garden table with two benches, two chairs, a charcoal barbecue and a parasol. Three steps lead down from the patio to the lawn, bordered with timber beds along one side, and there is a further sunny patio and herb garden beyond. Free parking is available in the village car park opposite the cottage.
Blockley is a popular village in the Cotswolds which is found within a triangle formed by three renowned market towns: Chipping Campden to the North, Moreton-in-Marsh to the South East and Stow-on-the-Wold to the South. Being close to these three towns has led to increased footfall in the village, bringing with it good quality pubs and a lovely village shop/café.
As the village is away from main roads, it avoids the heavy tourist traffic and so visitors can get a real sense of rural life, enjoying the rolling countryside which falls within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The peaceful Blockley Brook attracts tourists and locals as a quiet place to relax in the warmer months. This brook, together with the other brook in the village, played a part in Blockley's history as there were once 12 water mills which provided work in various industries over the centuries, including silk production and flour milling.
Architecturally the village has quite a different character in comparison to the rest of the North Cotswolds as it has a more similar style to that of the villages in the Stroud valley, but here they have used a more golden stone. This design is reminiscent of wealthier times as the majority of the cottages were built during the 17th and 18th century, at the height of the industrial era.
A popular attraction in Blockley is Mill Dene Garden which is a partner garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. With a misty grotto, stream and seats around the mill pond, this is a lovely place to while away the time looking out for the kingfishers whilst enjoying a cream tea.
Food & Drink
For a relatively small village, Blockley is blessed with a number of places to eat and drink, all just a short walk from anywhere in the village.
The Crown Inn (www.crownhotelblockley.co.uk): This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales. This honey coloured historic inn is covered in Virginia creeper which turns a stunning red in Autumn. Walk inside to the scents of wood smoke from the open log fires and snuggle into a comfy chair by the fire, to view the daily papers with a coffee or something stronger. Dinner is served in the warm and friendly restaurant with lighter meals and snacks available in the bar.
The Great Western Arms (https://www.hooky.co.uk/content/our-pubs/great-western-arms-blockley.ashx): The award winning Great Western Arms is the “Local” of Blockley. The “Western” as it is locally known, is a Hook Norton Brewery pub and is tenanted to Sharon Brace. It is right at the heart of the village both geographically and socially, and is where Sharon and her team serve up some of the finest food, drink and entertainment available. The pub has two rooms: one is used as the restaurant and the other houses a pool table, juke box and darts board (dogs are welcome in the pool room). The Pub has recently been extensively refurbished and now boasts 1st class facilities and comforts. The spacious lounge bar/restaurant retains its period "feel" but has been re-furnished and decorated with great taste and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly.
Blockley Village Shop & Café (blockleyshop.com): The community owned shop and café is the hub of the village. The shop offers a wide range of basic groceries and necessities, and a tempting array of local products, including farm meat and free-range eggs, daily deliveries of local fruit and veg, freshly baked bread and locally made ready meals. Logs are generally stocked in winter. The licensed café is open all day, serving breakfasts, lunches, coffees and teas, and home-baked cakes. Take-away hot and cold food, including croissants, pastries and baguettes, is also very popular. The café, where free broadband is available, is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors of all ages.
Un charmant cottage de caractère, dans un beau village préservé, parfaitement situé pour explorer les Cotswolds. Un pub local et une merveilleuse boutique de village et un café étaient certainement un bonus.
Keith2020-02-02T00:00:00ZSuper endroit pour un peu de "R & R", ainsi que pour explorer les charmantes villes à proximité. Blockley est calme et pas touristique, mais plein de charme et les habitants sont très sympathiques. De plus, le Great Western sert une excellente cuisine, tout comme le café local, et le magasin du village propose un nombre incroyable de produits. Bracken Cottage est tellement pittoresque, chaud et ensoleillé. Il a un lit très confortable et de beaux draps.

Chipping Campden is one of the main market towns in the North Cotswolds, built by medieval traders with wealth created from the wool trade. With many thatched cottages, this is one of the most picturesque towns in the region. A notable feature of the town is the Market Hall which was built in 1627. Originally thought to be used in the wool trade, the main function of the hall was actually to give shelter to local cheese, poultry and butter sellers.
The High Street is relatively small, taking just five minutes to walk from one end to the other, and it has a number of well-regarded eateries ranging from tea houses to dining pubs and restaurants. This main street curves in a shallow arc which is flanked on both sides by terraces of ancient houses, each house having its own embellishments. This feature of the town is one of the reasons why, in 1970, the street was officially designated as a conservation area.
Chipping Campden marks one end of the Cotswolds Way which is a 102 mile National Trail linking Chipping Campden to Bath. For the majority of the trail it follows the Cotswold escarpment which gives the walker fantastic views of the surrounding scenery. The Way passes through many traditional villages and close to historical sites including Sudeley Castle near Winchcombe and Hailes Abbey. The countryside along the Way is very diverse, ranging from wildflower meadows to beech woodlands, providing visitors with perfect examples of Britain's stunning landscape.
Food & Drink
Chipping Campden has numerous places to eat and drink, with a range of cuisines and prices to suit most tastes and budgets. The list below is a small sample of the range of options available:
The Kings Hotel (www.kingscampden.co.uk): Modern British food with a contemporary twist. You will encounter mouth-watering choices like a starter of Duck Rillets with a Pea Panna Cotta & Pomegranate dressing, or main course of Braised Belly Pork & Fillet, Crispy Langoustine Tail, Roasted Apple, Celeriac Choucroute & Dauphinoise Potato. To finish, the dessert menu promises blissful indulgence with the likes of Caramel Banana Mousse, Pain D’epice & Coffee Soil. For a more informal option, relax in the friendly atmosphere of the stylishly refurbished Brasserie bar, serving morning coffee & brunch through to afternoon tea & dinner. Enjoy favourites such as Mussels in Garlic & White Wine, Home-made Aberdeen Angus Burger, Focaccia, Smoked Bacon & Tomato Relish with Fries;
Cotswold House Hotel (www.cotswoldhouse.com): The kitchen team take their inspiration from the finest offerings of dedicated producers - whether it be wholesome crusty breads, locally-churned cheeses, home-reared meats, best Cornish fish, vegetables from the lush Vale of Evesham, or jams and preserves from small-scale artisan producers. The result? The very best of modern British cooking. Wonderful, simple food served at lunch and dinner in The Cotswold Grill or at dinner in The Dining Room at Cotswold House. On warm days, enjoy a drink, coffee, or lunch on the Pavilion Terrace tucked away in the hotel garden, its borders awash with summer colour. Sit under a shady umbrella and enjoy the peace and quiet from morning coffee to your early evening sun-downer;
Michael’s Mediterranean Restaurant(www.michaelsmediterranean.co.uk): Specialising in Greek and modern Mediterranean cuisine, served in a relaxed, intimate setting. Wine and dine in relaxed surroundings, with the warm ambience of open fires and a friendly service. From a delightful array of Mezze dishes, fresh fish and seafood with seasonal daily specials to the renowned “Marathona” Fillet Steaks.

Enjoying dappled sunshine throughout the day in fair weather, this charming outdoor space has an attractive stone table with seating for four and the trellis at its border is home to lavender, jasmine and roses which help create a natural screen for privacy.
An allocated parking space is provided and there is free on-street parking available in the town if required.
Chipping Campden is one of the main market towns in the North Cotswolds, built by medieval traders with wealth created from the wool trade. With many thatched cottages, this is one of the most picturesque towns in the region. A notable feature of the town is the Market Hall which was built in 1627. Originally thought to be used in the wool trade, the main function of the hall was actually to give shelter to local cheese, poultry and butter sellers.
The High Street is relatively small, taking just five minutes to walk from one end to the other, and it has a number of well-regarded eateries ranging from tea houses to dining pubs and restaurants. This main street curves in a shallow arc which is flanked on both sides by terraces of ancient houses, each house having its own embellishments. This feature of the town is one of the reasons why, in 1970, the street was officially designated as a conservation area.
Chipping Campden marks one end of the Cotswolds Way which is a 102 mile National Trail linking Chipping Campden to Bath. For the majority of the trail it follows the Cotswold escarpment which gives the walker fantastic views of the surrounding scenery. The Way passes through many traditional villages and close to historical sites including Sudeley Castle near Winchcombe and Hailes Abbey. The countryside along the Way is very diverse, ranging from wildflower meadows to beech woodlands, providing visitors with perfect examples of Britain's stunning landscape.
Chipping Campden has numerous places to eat and drink, with a range of cuisines and prices to suit most tastes and budgets. The list below is a small sample of the range of options available:
The Kings Hotel (www.kingscampden.co.uk): Modern British food with a contemporary twist. You will encounter mouth-watering choices like a starter of Duck Rillets with a Pea Panna Cotta & Pomegranate dressing, or main course of Braised Belly Pork & Fillet, Crispy Langoustine Tail, Roasted Apple, Celeriac Choucroute & Dauphinoise Potato. To finish, the dessert menu promises blissful indulgence with the likes of Caramel Banana Mousse, Pain D’epice & Coffee Soil. For a more informal option, relax in the friendly atmosphere of the stylishly refurbished Brasserie bar, serving morning coffee & brunch through to afternoon tea & dinner. Enjoy favourites such as Mussels in Garlic & White Wine, Home-made Aberdeen Angus Burger, Focaccia, Smoked Bacon & Tomato Relish with Fries;
Cotswold House Hotel (www.cotswoldhouse.com): The kitchen team take their inspiration from the finest offerings of dedicated producers - whether it be wholesome crusty breads, locally-churned cheeses, home-reared meats, best Cornish fish, vegetables from the lush Vale of Evesham, or jams and preserves from small-scale artisan producers. The result? The very best of modern British cooking. Wonderful, simple food served at lunch and dinner in The Cotswold Grill or at dinner in The Dining Room at Cotswold House. On warm days, enjoy a drink, coffee, or lunch on the Pavilion Terrace tucked away in the hotel garden, its borders awash with summer colour. Sit under a shady umbrella and enjoy the peace and quiet from morning coffee to your early evening sun-downer;
Michael’s Mediterranean Restaurant(www.michaelsmediterranean.co.uk): Specialising in Greek and modern Mediterranean cuisine, served in a relaxed, intimate setting. Wine and dine in relaxed surroundings, with the warm ambience of open fires and a friendly service. From a delightful array of Mezze dishes, fresh fish and seafood with seasonal daily specials to the renowned “Marathona” Fillet Steaks.

This spacious and elegant cottage boasts many attractive features including painted beams, a large sandstone fireplace with a wood burning stove and a fabulous glass roof lantern which bathes the dining area in natural light. Surrounding the cottage is the enclosed, south facing garden, well-maintained and complete with summer house, and to the side of the property there is off-street parking for up to one large car or two smaller cars.
Church Orchard Cottage is located off a quiet lane in the charming village of Weston Subedge, a quaint village with an award-winning local pub, The Seagrave Arms, and a thriving village hall which has a lively bar and regular film viewings. Lying at the foot of Dover’s Hill, and located within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are many cycle routes and walking trails to explore from the village and Dover’s Hill itself also features on the famed Cotswold Way long distance walking trail which links Chipping Campden to Bath, spanning 100 miles of fantastic countryside.
Weston Subedge is just two miles from the picturesque market town of Chipping Campden, with its wide range of cafes, pubs and restaurants to enjoy, and the much-loved village of Broadway is also just a short drive away, with its art galleries, tea rooms and the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway.

The gabled porch at the front of the property is a useful space for storing coats and shoes, and from here, the stable front door leads into a small hall. The following rooms are on the ground floor:
Living room: This elegant room has original beams and bespoke furnishings and contains a large sandstone fireplace with cosy wood burning stove, two sofas and a footstool, a Smart TV with Netflix access for account holders only, and a well-stocked games cupboard with board games, books and children’s drawing books;
Kitchen/dining room: Through the internal French doors in the living room lies the wonderful open plan kitchen/dining area. This luxurious space, reminiscent of a Homes & Gardens feature, is flooded with natural light from the glass roof lantern and is perfect for socialising. This space contains a double electric oven, a three-ring induction hob and extraction bar, fridge and freezer, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster and Nespresso coffee machine. There is also a washing machine, iPod docking station with Bluetooth connector, round dining table with seating for four and two armchairs;
Cloakroom: Contains a toilet and wash basin.
The staircase, with its ornate overhead chandelier, leads from the entrance hall to the first floor landing, off which are the following rooms:
Master bedroom: This stunning room has been smartly decorated with antique French light fittings and a panelled feature wall which contrasts with the otherwise light, neutral tones of the room. This bedroom contains a king size bed, a fitted wardrobe and trunk for additional storage, a gilt-edged mirror and an armchair;
Bedroom 2: Overlooking the garden, this lovely room has a modern contemporary countryside décor and contains a double bed, bedside tables and hanging rail with shelf for storage and a bedroom chair;
Family bathroom: A stylish bathroom which contains a bath with overhead shower, toilet, wash basin, heated towel rail and demister mirror.
The enchanting south facing back garden wraps around the cottage, with miniature box hedges and an array of beautiful flowers, shrubs and mature trees filling the raised beds at the borders. An impressive date palm tree gives the garden an exotic feel and besides this lies the patio area which contains a large outdoor table with seating for four and a charcoal barbecue. To the side of the cottage there is a lawn area and the addition of dusk-to-dawn sensory lights around the garden creates a romantic atmosphere and makes it a delightful spot to relax in the summer months once the sun’s set. Two stone steps lead up to the summer house which looks down the driveway and across to the neighbouring farmland and 12th century church. Equipped with heating, electricity and a spacious bamboo seating area, the summer house is another wonderful area in which to unwind after days spent exploring the Cotswolds.
The gated driveway provides off-street parking for up to two small cars, and further on-street parking is available on the lane.
The Cotswolds are characterised by attractive small towns and villages, built of the underlying Cotswold stone (a yellow oolitic limestone). In the Middle Ages the wool trade made the Cotswolds prosperous and some of this money was put into the building of churches, leaving the area with a number of large handsome Cotswold stone "wool churches". The area remains affluent, which has encouraged the establishment of many high quality pubs, restaurants and antique shops.
Le chalet est tellement beau, encore mieux que les photos. Le design intérieur est parfait pour un chalet. Endroit vraiment calme, c'est ce que nous recherchions, mais à seulement 10 minutes en voiture des villages les plus animés avec des magasins, des restaurants et des cafés.

Welcome to Alice Cottage, brought to you exclusively by Character Cottages, local specialists in stylish, Cotswold holiday rentals.
Alice Cottage is set on a hillside, with views out over the rooftops of Blockley, to the woods and fields beyond. The village is a hidden gem, being set well away from major roads and is very peaceful and picturesque, yet it is large enough to have two pubs, a restaurant and a community owned village shop and café, as well as a historic Norman church. It is also the location where the Father Brown mystery series is filmed. Blockley is close to the popular Cotswold market towns of Moreton-in-Marsh, Chipping Camden and Stow-on-the-Wold, and many beautiful countryside walks are right on the doorstep. It is also well located for further afield destinations, such as Stratford-upon-Avon, Oxford or Blenheim Palace.

Alice Cottage is one of a handful of cottages set on a small quiet lane, yet only moments from Blockley's historic high street. There is one shared parking space in front of the cottage and additional, free street parking is readily available. A path through the garden leads to the front door, which opens into the sunroom and the rest of the ground floor:
Sunroom: South facing and looking out to the garden, with exposed stone walls and a clear roof, this is a lovely room to relax in, whatever the season. Contains a wooden table and two chairs;
Living room/dining room/kitchen: The heart of this cosy cottage, the living room area contains comfy seating for three people, a wood burning stove and an LED HD Freesat TV, with DVD player. There is a fold away table, for formal dining. The kitchen area is very efficiently and practically arranged, and includes a 2-ring electric hob, electric oven, Smeg fridge/freezer, microwave, Miele washing machine/tumble dryer, toaster and kettle. There is also a radio with an iPod dock.
Stairs lead up from the kitchen area to a small first floor landing, off which are the following rooms:
Master bedroom: Contains a double bed and plenty of storage space. There is also a radio with an iPod dock;
Bedroom 2: A small room, which contains a 75cm wide single bed and a bedside cabinet with drawers;
Shower room: Although small, the bathroom has been well designed, to include a shower, small basin and toilet.
Alice Cottage's small, enclosed garden is well proportioned with a raised terrace to take advantage of the lovely far reaching rural views and to provide a beautiful south facing outdoor seating area, with a table, wooden bench, two chairs and a charcoal BBQ.
Blockley is a popular village in the Cotswolds which is found within a triangle formed by three renowned market towns: Chipping Campden to the North, Moreton-in-Marsh to the South East and Stow-on-the-Wold to the South. Being close to these three towns has led to increased footfall in the village, bringing with it good quality pubs and a lovely village shop/café.
As the village is away from main roads, it avoids the heavy tourist traffic and so visitors can get a real sense of rural life, enjoying the rolling countryside which falls within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The peaceful Blockley Brook attracts tourists and locals as a quiet place to relax in the warmer months. This brook, together with the other brook in the village, played a part in Blockley's history as there were once 12 water mills which provided work in various industries over the centuries, including silk production and flour milling.
Architecturally the village has quite a different character in comparison to the rest of the North Cotswolds as it has a more similar style to that of the villages in the Stroud valley, but here they have used a more golden stone. This design is reminiscent of wealthier times as the majority of the cottages were built during the 17th and 18th century, at the height of the industrial era.
A popular attraction in Blockley is Mill Dene Garden which is a partner garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. With a misty grotto, stream and seats around the mill pond, this is a lovely place to while away the time looking out for the kingfishers whilst enjoying a cream tea.
Nous avons passé un bon moment. Le chalet était petit mais très propre et confortable. Il est bien équipé et idéalement situé pour explorer les Cotswolds
Sally2019-10-28T00:00:00ZCeci est un chalet vraiment doux et confortable. Il est petit mais cela est représenté avec précision dans la description. C'est idéal pour un couple avec un jeune enfant. Nous avions un troisième adulte occupant la petite chambre simple qui était bien pour les deux nuits que nous avons passées là-bas. Je pensais que payer plus de 400 £ pour quelques nuits était cher et que si j'y retournais, j'irais probablement directement à Character Cottages plutôt que via AirBnB. Cependant, il est très bien situé pour ce charmant village de Brockley et le parking n’était pas aussi compliqué qu’il le semblait au premier abord. Nous avons fait une belle promenade jusqu'à l'Arboretum de Batsford et avons également réussi à être à Brockley pour la soirée cinéma, ce qui était un régal supplémentaire inattendu.
Ann2019-10-20T00:00:00ZEndroit charmant. Beau jardin avant. Belle ville. Nous l'avons aimé. J'y retournerais sans hésiter!
Callie2019-09-02T00:00:00ZMagnifique chalet dans un excellent emplacement à proximité du village et des sentiers de randonnée. Conduite très facile vers toutes les parties des Cotswolds. L'endroit était très propre et confortable avec beaucoup de petites attentions.

La cuisine était bien équipée et tout le gîte était joliment rénové et confortablement meublé. Il y avait beaucoup d'espace pour notre famille de 5.

Food & Drink
For a relatively small village, Blockley is blessed with a number of places to eat and drink, all just a short walk from anywhere in the village.
The Crown Inn (www.crownhotelblockley.co.uk): This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales. This honey coloured historic inn is covered in Virginia creeper which turns a stunning red in Autumn. Walk inside to the scents of wood smoke from the open log fires and snuggle into a comfy chair by the fire, to view the daily papers with a coffee or something stronger. Dinner is served in the warm and friendly restaurant with lighter meals and snacks available in the bar.
The Great Western Arms (https://www.hooky.co.uk/content/our-pubs/great-western-arms-blockley.ashx): The award winning Great Western Arms is the “Local” of Blockley. The “Western” as it is locally known, is a Hook Norton Brewery pub and is tenanted to Sharon Brace. It is right at the heart of the village both geographically and socially, and is where Sharon and her team serve up some of the finest food, drink and entertainment available. The pub has two rooms: one is used as the restaurant and the other houses a pool table, juke box and darts board (dogs are welcome in the pool room). The Pub has recently been extensively refurbished and now boasts 1st class facilities and comforts. The spacious lounge bar/restaurant retains its period "feel" but has been re-furnished and decorated with great taste and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly.
Blockley Village Shop & Café (blockleyshop.com): The community owned shop and café is the hub of the village. The shop offers a wide range of basic groceries and necessities, and a tempting array of local products, including farm meat and free-range eggs, daily deliveries of local fruit and veg, freshly baked bread and locally made ready meals. Logs are generally stocked in winter. The licensed café is open all day, serving breakfasts, lunches, coffees and teas, and home-baked cakes. Take-away hot and cold food, including croissants, pastries and baguettes, is also very popular. The café, where free broadband is available, is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors of all ages.
Honeysuckle Cottage était un endroit merveilleux pour passer le long week-end. Nous avons passé un week-end magique! J'aimerais seulement que nous ayons des étoiles plus longtemps. Une fois que vous avez réservé, l'organisation vous facilite l'accès et l'accès à la maison! La maison est spacieuse avec de belles caractéristiques. La vue est à couper le souffle. Le village est mignon et ses promenades magnifiques. C'est vraiment tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour passer un agréable moment à la campagne! La plus haute recommandation!
Gelske2019-07-28T00:00:00ZC'était un endroit merveilleux pour s'évader quelques jours. La vue était incroyable et c'était génial de pouvoir me rendre au magasin local pour faire le nécessaire pour cuisiner moi-même lorsque je voyageais sans voiture. En fonction du bus, il est parfois devenu un peu difficile, mais c’était bien de pouvoir explorer la campagne à pied. Chaque sentier était sa propre aventure. Le chalet avait tout ce dont j'avais besoin et était assez confortable. J'aimerais vraiment revenir un jour, si l'occasion se présentait.

Très belle maison dans un endroit extrêmement calme et bucolique. Tout était parfait, très propre et confortable, cuisine extrêmement bien équipée avec une merveilleuse cuisinière à gaz. Le petit village de Broad Campden est bien joli, et la marche vers Chipping Campden par le sentier (25 minutes) bien agréable. Tout petit bémol, ma conjointe qui est légèrement arachnophobe, a été un peu dérangée par la présence de quelques araignées dans diverses pièces de la maison.

Suzanne communication était excellente et elle nous a envoyé toutes les informations détaillées avant notre arrivée pour nous assurer d'obtenir à la maison en toute sécurité.

La cuisine a tout aussi! Je le recommanderai vivement cette maison du 17ème siècle! Le chalet est belle parce que leurs propriétaires sont!
Annabelle2015-08-29T00:00:00ZSuzanne était un hôte merveilleux et utile dès le début - elle était proactif dans sa communication et utile à la planification de l'information menant à notre arrivée. La maison elle-même était belle et comme décrit dans la liste - très confortable avec beaucoup d'espace pour 6 personnes. Alors qu'il est dans la cour de la maison de Suzanne, nous avions toute l'intimité dont nous avions besoin. Les bases (produits de toilette, détergents, etc.) ont tous été mis à disposition et il était cette attention au détail qui nous a fait détendre et profiter de notre temps. L'emplacement est assez central dans les Cotswolds comme un hub pour explorer la région, et de Chipping Campden est une belle ville elle-même. Suzanne était également plus souples en ce qui concerne vérifier et nous a permis de partir une heure plus tard que l'heure prévue.

Il y avait beaucoup de zones de vie, il a eu une spacieuse salle à manger et la cuisine, et vraiment belles chambres. Nous étions quatre adultes et un enfant et il était très bien pour nous. Il a été merveilleusement équipée avec tous les outils que nous pourrions avez toujours voulu dans la cuisine, et nous avons cuisiné beaucoup. Nous avons pu dîner à l'extérieur dans la cour aussi, il était vraiment très agréable. Suzanne était serviable et disponible si nous avons besoin de quelque chose, et même eu le frigo approvisionné avec quelques articles de base comme le lait, le jus et les œufs pour nous à notre arrivée. Le chalet est dans un endroit vraiment merveilleux pour explorer les Cotswolds et dans un très beau quartier tranquille, juste à la périphérie de la ville.
Sarah2015-08-02T00:00:00ZLa propriété de Suzanne est un plaisir absolu. The Stables est une magnifique propriété avec des charges de poutres apparentes, très spacieux et plein de coins pour chacun de trouver un peu d'espace! Il ya plein de petites touches autour de la maison qui a un long chemin à nous faire sentir à la maison. Suzanne était également très utile dans la période qui a précédé notre séjour, répondre à mes nombreux courriels et de fournir une foule de renseignements. La situation est parfaite aussi bien, puisque vous êtes assez isolé d'avoir votre propre espace, mais assez près de Chipping Camden à descendre pour le dîner ou des fournitures. Ceci est une propriété de charme et ma famille et moi étions très reconnaissants de l'occasion pour rester et faire à la maison pour quelques jours. Merci Suzanne! Je vous recommande également d'utiliser Reg chez Red Lion Taxis (07565 226887) si vous avez besoin d'être convoyé autour de la zone locale.

SuperhostWelcome to Red Lion Cottage, brought to you exclusively by Character Cottages, local specialists in stylish, Cotswold holiday rentals.
Red Lion Cottage is a stunning Cotswold stone cottage, which is believed to date back to c.1750, and is located on a peaceful country lane, on the edge of the picturesque village of Blockley. The beautiful surrounding Cotswold countryside is visible from the cottage, and many lovely walks are accessible directly from the front door. Once famous for its many silk mills, Blockley is located well away from busy roads and tourist routes, yet still benefits from having two pubs and a community owned village shop & café, as well as a historic Norman church. The village is also close to the popular Cotswold market towns of Moreton-in-Marsh, Chipping Camden and Stow-on-the-Wold, as well as being well placed for trips to popular tourist destinations, such as Blenheim Palace, Stratford-upon-Avon, and Oxford.

Sitting on a raised pavement, Red Lion Cottage is one of a short row of cottages, on a quiet no through lane in the picturesque village of Blockley.
The front door opens directly into the main living area, with the following rooms on the ground floor:
Living/dining room: The spacious living room is bright and airy, with lovely character features, including oak beams, a window seat, and a large, Cotswold stone inglenook fireplace, with a wood burning stove. The room contains two comfortable two-seater sofas, an arm chair, and a Cuban mahogany dining table that can comfortably seat four. There is also a Smart TV, with a DVD player;
Kitchen: Two steps lead up from the living room to the well presented kitchen, which contains an electric oven with a four-ring gas hob, an integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher, toaster and kettle;
Shower room: A door from the kitchen leads into a large shower room, which has a beautiful limestone floor and is decorated with Orla Kiely wallpaper. There is a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, wash basin and toilet.
Steep, winding stairs lead up from the living room to the first floor landing, off which are the following rooms:
Master bedroom: A stylish room, with a window seat, which looks out over beautiful countryside. The room contains a wrought iron double bed and large built-in wardrobes;
Bedroom 2: Another lovely room, also with a wooden window seat that provides stunning views of the surrounding Blockley Valley. This room contains a double bed and a chest of drawers;
Family bathroom: Contains a Victorian style slipper bath, heated towel rail, wash basin and toilet.
Stone steps lead up from the kitchen to a small, south-west facing garden terrace, which is a lovely suntrap in the warmer months of the year. The terrace has raised borders, and a gravelled seating area, with a table and four chairs.
Quiet, on street parking is freely available on the no through road that the cottage sits on.
Blockley is a popular village in the Cotswolds which is found within a triangle formed by three renowned market towns: Chipping Campden to the North, Moreton-in-Marsh to the South East and Stow-on-the-Wold to the South. Being close to these three towns has led to increased footfall in the village, bringing with it good quality pubs and a lovely village shop/café.
As the village is away from main roads, it avoids the heavy tourist traffic and so visitors can get a real sense of rural life, enjoying the rolling countryside which falls within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The peaceful Blockley Brook attracts tourists and locals as a quiet place to relax in the warmer months. This brook, together with the other brook in the village, played a part in Blockley's history as there were once 12 water mills which provided work in various industries over the centuries, including silk production and flour milling.
Architecturally the village has quite a different character in comparison to the rest of the North Cotswolds as it has a more similar style to that of the villages in the Stroud valley, but here they have used a more golden stone. This design is reminiscent of wealthier times as the majority of the cottages were built during the 17th and 18th century, at the height of the industrial era.
A popular attraction in Blockley is Mill Dene Garden which is a partner garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. With a misty grotto, stream and seats around the mill pond, this is a lovely place to while away the time looking out for the kingfishers whilst enjoying a cream tea.
Food & Drink
For a relatively small village, Blockley is blessed with a number of places to eat and drink, all just a short walk from anywhere in the village.
The Crown Inn (www.crownhotelblockley.co.uk): This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales. This honey coloured historic inn is covered in Virginia creeper which turns a stunning red in Autumn. Walk inside to the scents of wood smoke from the open log fires and snuggle into a comfy chair by the fire, to view the daily papers with a coffee or something stronger. Dinner is served in the warm and friendly restaurant with lighter meals and snacks available in the bar.
The Great Western Arms (https://www.hooky.co.uk/content/our-pubs/great-western-arms-blockley.ashx): The award winning Great Western Arms is the “Local” of Blockley. The “Western” as it is locally known, is a Hook Norton Brewery pub and is tenanted to Sharon Brace. It is right at the heart of the village both geographically and socially, and is where Sharon and her team serve up some of the finest food, drink and entertainment available. The pub has two rooms: one is used as the restaurant and the other houses a pool table, juke box and darts board (dogs are welcome in the pool room). The Pub has recently been extensively refurbished and now boasts 1st class facilities and comforts. The spacious lounge bar/restaurant retains its period "feel" but has been re-furnished and decorated with great taste and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly.
Blockley Village Shop & Café (blockleyshop.com): The community owned shop and café is the hub of the village. The shop offers a wide range of basic groceries and necessities, and a tempting array of local products, including farm meat and free-range eggs, daily deliveries of local fruit and veg, freshly baked bread and locally made ready meals. Logs are generally stocked in winter. The licensed café is open all day, serving breakfasts, lunches, coffees and teas, and home-baked cakes. Take-away hot and cold food, including croissants, pastries and baguettes, is also very popular. The café, where free broadband is available, is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors of all ages.
Un chalet parfait - tout ce que vous pourriez souhaiter pour une visite dans les Cotswolds !!!

A dry-stone wall encloses the garden and alongside this wall runs a dried out culvert. The two foot culvert used to be a stream and whilst no water flows through the channel now, young children should be supervised in the garden at all times.

Chipping Campden is one of the main market towns in the North Cotswolds, built by medieval traders with wealth created from the wool trade. With many thatched cottages, this is one of the most picturesque towns in the region. A notable feature of the town is the Market Hall which was built in 1627. Originally thought to be used in the wool trade, the main function of the hall was actually to give shelter to local cheese, poultry and butter sellers.
The High Street is relatively small, taking just five minutes to walk from one end to the other, and it has a number of well-regarded eateries ranging from tea houses to dining pubs and restaurants. This main street curves in a shallow arc which is flanked on both sides by terraces of ancient houses, each house having its own embellishments. This feature of the town is one of the reasons why, in 1970, the street was officially designated as a conservation area.
Chipping Campden marks one end of the Cotswolds Way which is a 102 mile National Trail linking Chipping Campden to Bath. For the majority of the trail it follows the Cotswold escarpment which gives the walker fantastic views of the surrounding scenery. The Way passes through many traditional villages and close to historical sites including Sudeley Castle near Winchcombe and Hailes Abbey. The countryside along the Way is very diverse, ranging from wildflower meadows to beech woodlands, providing visitors with perfect examples of Britain's stunning landscape.
Food & Drink
Chipping Campden has numerous places to eat and drink, with a range of cuisines and prices to suit most tastes and budgets. The list below is a small sample of the range of options available:
The Kings Hotel (www.kingscampden.co.uk): Modern British food with a contemporary twist. You will encounter mouth-watering choices like a starter of Duck Rillets with a Pea Panna Cotta & Pomegranate dressing, or main course of Braised Belly Pork & Fillet, Crispy Langoustine Tail, Roasted Apple, Celeriac Choucroute & Dauphinoise Potato. To finish, the dessert menu promises blissful indulgence with the likes of Caramel Banana Mousse, Pain D’epice & Coffee Soil. For a more informal option, relax in the friendly atmosphere of the stylishly refurbished Brasserie bar, serving morning coffee & brunch through to afternoon tea & dinner. Enjoy favourites such as Mussels in Garlic & White Wine, Home-made Aberdeen Angus Burger, Focaccia, Smoked Bacon & Tomato Relish with Fries;
Cotswold House Hotel (www.cotswoldhouse.com): The kitchen team take their inspiration from the finest offerings of dedicated producers - whether it be wholesome crusty breads, locally-churned cheeses, home-reared meats, best Cornish fish, vegetables from the lush Vale of Evesham, or jams and preserves from small-scale artisan producers. The result? The very best of modern British cooking. Wonderful, simple food served at lunch and dinner in The Cotswold Grill or at dinner in The Dining Room at Cotswold House. On warm days, enjoy a drink, coffee, or lunch on the Pavilion Terrace tucked away in the hotel garden, its borders awash with summer colour. Sit under a shady umbrella and enjoy the peace and quiet from morning coffee to your early evening sun-downer;
Michael’s Mediterranean Restaurant(www.michaelsmediterranean.co.uk): Specialising in Greek and modern Mediterranean cuisine, served in a relaxed, intimate setting. Wine and dine in relaxed surroundings, with the warm ambience of open fires and a friendly service. From a delightful array of Mezze dishes, fresh fish and seafood with seasonal daily specials to the renowned “Marathona” Fillet Steaks.

The Cotswolds are characterised by attractive small towns and villages, built of the underlying Cotswold stone (a yellow oolitic limestone). In the Middle Ages the wool trade made the Cotswolds prosperous and some of this money was put into the building of churches, leaving the area with a number of large handsome Cotswold stone "wool churches". The area remains affluent, which has encouraged the establishment of many high quality pubs, restaurants and antique shops.
Charmant cottage, impeccablement propre et sans encombrement mais très confortable, ce qui est souvent un équilibre difficile à trouver. Tout ce dont vous avez besoin et vraiment pratiquement organisé pour rendre les choses intuitives. Super endroit.
Kirstin2020-03-09T00:00:00ZMerveilleux séjour, le chalet est magnifique et le village est tout simplement parfait. Hautement recommandé.

Quel charmant chalet. Était si bien équipé, avec une vue imprenable et si confortable. La cuisine offrait tout ce dont vous pouviez avoir besoin avec un équipement haut de gamme, comme des couteaux et des casseroles Robert Welch et La creuset. La vue de la maison était magnifique et l'emplacement était idéal dans un charmant petit village. J'adorerais y retourner et je le recommande vivement.
Charlie2019-10-28T00:00:00ZChalet confortable et confortable dans un emplacement central idéal pour visiter certaines des meilleures régions des Cotswolds. Le chalet avait tout ce dont nous avions besoin et nous avons particulièrement aimé la vue sur les champs à l'arrière et regarder les chevreuils paître dans le champ derrière.
Caroline2019-09-27T00:00:00ZJe ne pouvais pas recommander assez ce cottage comme une grande, base confortable pour explorer la région. Le chalet lui-même est très bien équipée et était vraiment agréable et propre quand nous sommes arrivés. Comme il est un ancien cottage, les chambres ne sont pas énormes, mais cela ne fait qu'ajouter au caractère du lieu. Il y a une belle cuisine, salon et jardin à l'arrière pour se détendre le soir ou après une promenade locale. Blockley lui-même est une petite ville charmante, et nous avons trouvé la boutique / café local avait tout ce que nous avions besoin sur place sur un séjour de trois jours. L'emplacement est très pratique pour conduire et explorer les belles villes de la région. Il est à seulement 5-6 minutes à Chipping Camden qui a beaucoup d'options de restaurant le soir. Nous avons eu un moment très agréable et nous retournerais avec plaisir à nouveau!

Blockley is a popular village in the Cotswolds which is found within a triangle formed by three renowned market towns: Chipping Campden to the North, Moreton-in-Marsh to the South East and Stow-on-the-Wold to the South. Being close to these three towns has led to increased footfall in the village, bringing with it good quality pubs and a lovely village shop/café.
As the village is away from main roads, it avoids the heavy tourist traffic and so visitors can get a real sense of rural life, enjoying the rolling countryside which falls within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The peaceful Blockley Brook attracts tourists and locals as a quiet place to relax in the warmer months. This brook, together with the other brook in the village, played a part in Blockley's history as there were once 12 water mills which provided work in various industries over the centuries, including silk production and flour milling.
Architecturally the village has quite a different character in comparison to the rest of the North Cotswolds as it has a more similar style to that of the villages in the Stroud valley, but here they have used a more golden stone. This design is reminiscent of wealthier times as the majority of the cottages were built during the 17th and 18th century, at the height of the industrial era.
A popular attraction in Blockley is Mill Dene Garden which is a partner garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. With a misty grotto, stream and seats around the mill pond, this is a lovely place to while away the time looking out for the kingfishers whilst enjoying a cream tea.
Food & Drink
For a relatively small village, Blockley is blessed with a number of places to eat and drink, all just a short walk from anywhere in the village.
The Crown Inn (www.crownhotelblockley.co.uk): This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales. This honey coloured historic inn is covered in Virginia creeper which turns a stunning red in Autumn. Walk inside to the scents of wood smoke from the open log fires and snuggle into a comfy chair by the fire, to view the daily papers with a coffee or something stronger. Dinner is served in the warm and friendly restaurant with lighter meals and snacks available in the bar.
The Great Western Arms (https://www.hooky.co.uk/content/our-pubs/great-western-arms-blockley.ashx): The award winning Great Western Arms is the “Local” of Blockley. The “Western” as it is locally known, is a Hook Norton Brewery pub and is tenanted to Sharon Brace. It is right at the heart of the village both geographically and socially, and is where Sharon and her team serve up some of the finest food, drink and entertainment available. The pub has two rooms: one is used as the restaurant and the other houses a pool table, juke box and darts board (dogs are welcome in the pool room). The Pub has recently been extensively refurbished and now boasts 1st class facilities and comforts. The spacious lounge bar/restaurant retains its period "feel" but has been re-furnished and decorated with great taste and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly.
Blockley Village Shop & Café (blockleyshop.com): The community owned shop and café is the hub of the village. The shop offers a wide range of basic groceries and necessities, and a tempting array of local products, including farm meat and free-range eggs, daily deliveries of local fruit and veg, freshly baked bread and locally made ready meals. Logs are generally stocked in winter. The licensed café is open all day, serving breakfasts, lunches, coffees and teas, and home-baked cakes. Take-away hot and cold food, including croissants, pastries and baguettes, is also very popular. The café, where free broadband is available, is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors of all ages.
Je le recommande vivement. Super avec deux très petits - nous voulions un confort à la maison mais pour avoir encore une pause. Nous sommes allés aux Cotswolds plusieurs fois mais Blockley semble être l'un des rares villages qui n'a pas encore été découvert par les touristes. Il y a un café et un magasin à distance de marche du chalet et des copeaux de Camden, etc. tous à une courte distance en voiture. Le chalet lui-même est incroyable du feu confortable à la belle cuisine qui fait un joli centre pour la famille aux chambres les plus confortables qui vous font vous sentir comme chez vous. Nous reviendrons sans aucun doute.

Chipping Campden is one of the main market towns in the North Cotswolds, built by medieval traders with wealth created from the wool trade. With many thatched cottages, this is one of the most picturesque towns in the region. A notable feature of the town is the Market Hall which was built in 1627. Originally thought to be used in the wool trade, the main function of the hall was actually to give shelter to local cheese, poultry and butter sellers.
The High Street is relatively small, taking just five minutes to walk from one end to the other, and it has a number of well-regarded eateries ranging from tea houses to dining pubs and restaurants. This main street curves in a shallow arc which is flanked on both sides by terraces of ancient houses, each house having its own embellishments. This feature of the town is one of the reasons why, in 1970, the street was officially designated as a conservation area.
Chipping Campden marks one end of the Cotswolds Way which is a 102 mile National Trail linking Chipping Campden to Bath. For the majority of the trail it follows the Cotswold escarpment which gives the walker fantastic views of the surrounding scenery. The Way passes through many traditional villages and close to historical sites including Sudeley Castle near Winchcombe and Hailes Abbey. The countryside along the Way is very diverse, ranging from wildflower meadows to beech woodlands, providing visitors with perfect examples of Britain's stunning landscape.
Food & Drink
Chipping Campden has numerous places to eat and drink, with a range of cuisines and prices to suit most tastes and budgets. The list below is a small sample of the range of options available:
The Kings Hotel (www.kingscampden.co.uk): Modern British food with a contemporary twist. You will encounter mouth-watering choices like a starter of Duck Rillets with a Pea Panna Cotta & Pomegranate dressing, or main course of Braised Belly Pork & Fillet, Crispy Langoustine Tail, Roasted Apple, Celeriac Choucroute & Dauphinoise Potato. To finish, the dessert menu promises blissful indulgence with the likes of Caramel Banana Mousse, Pain D’epice & Coffee Soil. For a more informal option, relax in the friendly atmosphere of the stylishly refurbished Brasserie bar, serving morning coffee & brunch through to afternoon tea & dinner. Enjoy favourites such as Mussels in Garlic & White Wine, Home-made Aberdeen Angus Burger, Focaccia, Smoked Bacon & Tomato Relish with Fries;
Cotswold House Hotel (www.cotswoldhouse.com): The kitchen team take their inspiration from the finest offerings of dedicated producers - whether it be wholesome crusty breads, locally-churned cheeses, home-reared meats, best Cornish fish, vegetables from the lush Vale of Evesham, or jams and preserves from small-scale artisan producers. The result? The very best of modern British cooking. Wonderful, simple food served at lunch and dinner in The Cotswold Grill or at dinner in The Dining Room at Cotswold House. On warm days, enjoy a drink, coffee, or lunch on the Pavilion Terrace tucked away in the hotel garden, its borders awash with summer colour. Sit under a shady umbrella and enjoy the peace and quiet from morning coffee to your early evening sun-downer;
Michael’s Mediterranean Restaurant(www.michaelsmediterranean.co.uk): Specialising in Greek and modern Mediterranean cuisine, served in a relaxed, intimate setting. Wine and dine in relaxed surroundings, with the warm ambience of open fires and a friendly service.

The town is associated with the Arts and Crafts movement and offers a wide range of attractions for visitors, including medieval architecture, historic gardens and monuments, regular markets and unique shops. There are also numerous beautiful, quaint little villages waiting to be explored within a short drive.
Cultural events are held throughout the year, such as the Chipping Campden Music Festival, the Open Gardens weekend and the Robert Dover's Olimpick Games, described as “the first stirrings of Britain's Olympic beginnings”. Stratford upon Avon and Blenheim Palace, the birthplaces of Shakespeare and Churchill, are cultural gems situated nearby, as are the dreaming spires of Oxford. Cheltenham and the famous racing festival lie 15 miles away.
Le chalet était juste comme les photos. C'était très bien décoré et propre. L'eau chaude était chaude! Contrairement aux autres hôtels ou appartements dans lesquels nous avons séjourné. L'emplacement du chalet était génial ... à quelques mètres de High Street à Chipping Camden. Région très pittoresque et de grands sentiers pour la marche. Le cahier d’information était très complet et la recommandation de manger chez Eight Bells était parfaite. Si nous revenons dans cette région, nous resterions à Jacinabox!
Christina2019-10-06T00:00:00ZC'est un chalet de rêve dans les Cotswolds. Il est si proche de la rue principale de Chipping Campden et constitue une maison confortable et joliment décorée, parfaite pour une ou deux personnes. J'y suis allé deux fois et le recommanderai à tous ceux qui vont dans les Cotswolds. C'est juste magnifique!
Karen2019-10-01T00:00:00ZBien que seulement un court séjour d'une nuit à Jacinabox, mon copain et moi avons passé un merveilleux séjour dans cet hôtel. Le petit chalet était très propre, moderne et avait les touches de maison confortables parfaits. Nicci était très serviable et nous a permis de nous enregistrer tôt et de partir tard, car nous ne restions qu'une nuit. Globalement, un très joli cottage avec de jolis magasins, pubs, cafés et restaurants à quelques minutes à pied est vivement recommandé!
Hannah2019-09-16T00:00:00ZSituation idéale, calme mais en plein coeur d'une ville aux cartes postales. Propre et confortable, et un joli petit jardin aussi. La campagne environnante est également fabuleuse.
Steve2019-09-08T00:00:00ZUn bel appartement très bien situé.
Emily2019-08-08T00:00:00ZMagnifiquement meublé chalet qui était extrêmement simple et très relaxant pour notre séjour de week-end. Très propre et petites attentions! Le lit était extrêmement confortable et parfaitement situé (à deux pas) de High Street à Chipping Camden. Nicci était excellent et répondre aux questions et aux communications avant notre arrivée, plus l'enregistrement a été rapide et facile. Pour être honnête, c’était une bonne trouvaille et un lieu de séjour idéal pour fêter un anniversaire spécial.
Louise2019-02-24T00:00:00ZNous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour à la place de Nicci. C'était très confortable et décoré avec beaucoup de goût. Il y avait tout ce dont on pouvait avoir besoin et était très confortable. Tout était propre et Nicci était super avec la communication. C'était vraiment facile à trouver et l'emplacement était génial. 2 minutes de la rue principale et pourrait facilement conduire à des endroits comme Broadway, Stow on the Wold et Bourton sur l'eau. recommande vivement!

The Cotswolds are characterised by attractive small towns and villages, built of the underlying Cotswold stone (a yellow oolitic limestone). In the Middle Ages the wool trade made the Cotswolds prosperous and some of this money was put into the building of churches, leaving the area with a number of large handsome Cotswold stone "wool churches". The area remains affluent, which has encouraged the establishment of many high quality pubs, restaurants and antique shops.

Nicola Camille2020-01-29T00:00:00ZJe recommande vivement cet hôtel à tous ceux qui visitent la région. Notre petite cabane se sentait très privée et était parfaite pour notre minimoon. Le bain à remous et le feu étaient tous deux charmant et signifiait rester pour un repas du soir se sentait très romantique. L'emplacement est également parfait pour visiter les zones environnantes; Chipping Campden était un de nos préférés ainsi que les beaux jardins à proximité. Tanya était très utile et a répondu aux messages et requêtes rapidement. J'adorerais retourner dans le futur et je dirais à mes amis et à ma famille de visiter aussi! Merci Tanya.
Laura2018-06-01T00:00:00ZDaisy's Den était exactement ce que nous espérions et plus encore. A notre arrivée, nous sommes arrivés et avons été accueillis par la charmante Tanya qui nous a ensuite indiqué notre cabine.

Nous sommes venus ici pour notre anniversaire de mariage et les environs, les installations et la vie privée était incroyable. Nous avons hâte d'y retourner.

Tout était comme décrit et fonctionnait parfaitement, le soleil est même venu briller pour nous! Je me suis réveillé tous les matins aux agneaux dans le domaine et j'ai passé des soirées dans le bain bouillonnant après le barbecue. Il y a plein d'endroits à visiter dans la région mais nous avons trouvé que quand nous sommes sortis nous étions désespérés de retourner à Daisy's Den, seulement j'aurais aimé rester plus longtemps!

SuperhostWelcome to North End House, brought to you exclusively by Character Cottages, local specialists in stylish, Cotswold holiday rentals.
North End House is a double fronted detached Cotswold stone property which sleeps eight guests, in four stylish bedrooms, with three beautifully presented bathrooms. Late Georgian in design, the property has an abundance of stunning features including high ceilings, sash windows, exposed Cotswold stone and open fireplaces, one of which has a cosy electric flame effect stove. Dating back to 1865, the property was once used as a regular meeting house for the village’s silk mill workers who lived in the terraced cottages further up the road.
Lovingly refurbished to a high standard, the owners have used different colour schemes throughout the house, varying from sleek and subtle whites and greys to the bold and striking shades of blue. Each of the rooms boast designer furniture and carefully chosen antique pieces and these have been complemented by modern facilities including wireless internet access, two Smart TVs and a well-equipped kitchen. At the front of the property there is a south facing enclosed garden and off-street parking is available for up to three cars.
North End House is situated in the historic village of Blockley, a peaceful village with two country pubs, a community owned shop & café, a children’s playground, impressive Norman church and the tranquil Blockley Brook. The brook once had 12 watermills lining its banks, bringing wealth to the area during the height of the wool industry and one of these mills is now Mill Dene Garden, a hidden gem which is open to the public and features a misty grotto, mill pond and gorgeous flowers in bloom. Surrounded by stunning countryside, Blockley has many delightful walks and cycle routes on its doorstep including footpaths over to the much-loved Chipping Campden, Paxford and Ebrington, the latter being home to The Ebrington Arms, an award-winning country pub which was voted the UK’s number one village pub by The Times in 2017.
Blockley is well-placed for exploring the many lovely towns and villages of the North Cotswolds including Stow-on-the-Wold, Broadway and Snowshill, home of the Cotswold Lavender Farm and Fields, a must-see attraction for visitors to the area between May and August. The region offers a range of tourist attractions for all ages including the Cotswold Motoring and Toy Museum in Bourton-on-the-Water, the fascinating Sudeley Castle in Winchcombe and the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway which takes a 28 mile round trip through scenic countryside. Further afield destinations such as Stratford-upon-Avon, Oxford and Bath are also within easy reach for day trips.

Blockley is a popular village in the Cotswolds which is found within a triangle formed by three renowned market towns: Chipping Campden to the North, Moreton-in-Marsh to the South East and Stow-on-the-Wold to the South. Being close to these three towns has led to increased footfall in the village, bringing with it good quality pubs and a lovely village shop/café.
As the village is away from main roads, it avoids the heavy tourist traffic and so visitors can get a real sense of rural life, enjoying the rolling countryside which falls within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The peaceful Blockley Brook attracts tourists and locals as a quiet place to relax in the warmer months. This brook, together with the other brook in the village, played a part in Blockley's history as there were once 12 water mills which provided work in various industries over the centuries, including silk production and flour milling.
Architecturally the village has quite a different character in comparison to the rest of the North Cotswolds as it has a more similar style to that of the villages in the Stroud valley, but here they have used a more golden stone. This design is reminiscent of wealthier times as the majority of the cottages were built during the 17th and 18th century, at the height of the industrial era.
A popular attraction in Blockley is Mill Dene Garden which is a partner garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. With a misty grotto, stream and seats around the mill pond, this is a lovely place to while away the time looking out for the kingfishers whilst enjoying a cream tea.
Food & Drink
For a relatively small village, Blockley is blessed with a number of places to eat and drink, all just a short walk from anywhere in the village.
The Crown Inn (www.crownhotelblockley.co.uk): This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales. This honey coloured historic inn is covered in Virginia creeper which turns a stunning red in Autumn. Walk inside to the scents of wood smoke from the open log fires and snuggle into a comfy chair by the fire, to view the daily papers with a coffee or something stronger. Dinner is served in the warm and friendly restaurant with lighter meals and snacks available in the bar.
The Great Western Arms (https://www.hooky.co.uk/content/our-pubs/great-western-arms-blockley.ashx): The award winning Great Western Arms is the “Local” of Blockley. The “Western” as it is locally known, is a Hook Norton Brewery pub and is tenanted to Sharon Brace. It is right at the heart of the village both geographically and socially, and is where Sharon and her team serve up some of the finest food, drink and entertainment available. The pub has two rooms: one is used as the restaurant and the other houses a pool table, juke box and darts board (dogs are welcome in the pool room). The Pub has recently been extensively refurbished and now boasts 1st class facilities and comforts. The spacious lounge bar/restaurant retains its period "feel" but has been re-furnished and decorated with great taste and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly.
Blockley Village Shop & Café (blockleyshop.com): The community owned shop and café is the hub of the village. The shop offers a wide range of basic groceries and necessities, and a tempting array of local products, including farm meat and free-range eggs, daily deliveries of local fruit and veg, freshly baked bread and locally made ready meals. Logs are generally stocked in winter. The licensed café is open all day, serving breakfasts, lunches, coffees and teas, and home-baked cakes. Take-away hot and cold food, including croissants, pastries and baguettes, is also very popular. The café, where free broadband is available, is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors of all ages.

Two bedrooms upstairs, one double and a single. The single bed has a pull out trundle which can be used as a single bed to form a twin room or can be used along with the single to make a superking.

The Cotswold stone buildings in the town are stunning. The roof lines are all different heights and angles and the curved high street is beautiful.
Locals are friendly and helpful.
Merci pour un week-end agréable dans votre beau chalet confortable. C'était tout ce que nous attendions et le cottage avait tout ce dont nous avions besoin. Thankyou Andy pour être si flexible avec nos heures de départ et le gâteau que vous nous avez laissé, était une touche agréable.

Chipping Campden is a small market town in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England. It is notable for its elegant terraced High Street, dating from the 14th century to the 17th century. It is quite simply one of the finest towns in the Cotswolds – well preserved and full of history but also full of life and bustle.
Its elegant High Street is a delight, described by the historian, G.M. Trevelyan, as the most beautiful village street now left in the island: a broad gentle curve flanked on either side by an unbroken sweep of buildings covering a host of architectural styles with buildings dating back to the 14th century.
In the centre of the High Street stands the iconic Market Hall, now in the care and ownership of the National Trust, and built in 1627 by Sir Baptist Hicks to provide shelter for traders selling perishable goods like cheese and butter or precious goods like silks. The paving stones have been
As the name suggests ("Chipping" means market or market place from the old English "Ceping"). Chipping Campden was one of the most important of the medieval wool towns and famous throughout Europe. This legacy of fame and prosperity is everything that give the town its character.
Campden was already established in the 7th century and derives its name from the Saxon "Campa-denu" or "Campadene", meaning a valley with fields or enclosures of cultivated land.
Chipping Campden's church, St. James, at the north end of the town, is perhaps, the finest 'wool' church in the Cotswolds, with a magnificent 120ft (36 metre) tower and a very spacious interior. The church is famed for having one of the oldest altar tapestries (pre-reformation) and largest brass in England.
In 1970 the High Street and much of the rest of the town was officially designated a conservation area to preserve the ancient town for centuries to come.
Today Chipping Campden has a population of circa 2000.

Designed by Gordon Hayward, this pretty courtyard has an outdoor table and chairs, surrounded by mature shrubs and potted plants. Off-street parking for one car is provided on the shared driveway, with further on-street parking available in the village.
Blockley is a popular village in the Cotswolds which is found within a triangle formed by three renowned market towns: Chipping Campden to the North, Moreton-in-Marsh to the South East and Stow-on-the-Wold to the South. Being close to these three towns has led to increased footfall in the village, bringing with it good quality pubs and a lovely village shop/café.
As the village is away from main roads, it avoids the heavy tourist traffic and so visitors can get a real sense of rural life, enjoying the rolling countryside which falls within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The peaceful Blockley Brook attracts tourists and locals as a quiet place to relax in the warmer months. This brook, together with the other brook in the village, played a part in Blockley's history as there were once 12 water mills which provided work in various industries over the centuries, including silk production and flour milling.
Architecturally the village has quite a different character in comparison to the rest of the North Cotswolds as it has a more similar style to that of the villages in the Stroud valley, but here they have used a more golden stone. This design is reminiscent of wealthier times as the majority of the cottages were built during the 17th and 18th century, at the height of the industrial era.
A popular attraction in Blockley is Mill Dene Garden which is a partner garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. With a misty grotto, stream and seats around the mill pond, this is a lovely place to while away the time looking out for the kingfishers whilst enjoying a cream tea.
Food & Drink
For a relatively small village, Blockley is blessed with a number of places to eat and drink, all just a short walk from anywhere in the village.
The Crown Inn (www.crownhotelblockley.co.uk): This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales. This honey coloured historic inn is covered in Virginia creeper which turns a stunning red in Autumn. Walk inside to the scents of wood smoke from the open log fires and snuggle into a comfy chair by the fire, to view the daily papers with a coffee or something stronger. Dinner is served in the warm and friendly restaurant with lighter meals and snacks available in the bar.
The Great Western Arms (https://www.hooky.co.uk/content/our-pubs/great-western-arms-blockley.ashx): The award winning Great Western Arms is the “Local” of Blockley. The “Western” as it is locally known, is a Hook Norton Brewery pub and is tenanted to Sharon Brace. It is right at the heart of the village both geographically and socially, and is where Sharon and her team serve up some of the finest food, drink and entertainment available. The pub has two rooms: one is used as the restaurant and the other houses a pool table, juke box and darts board (dogs are welcome in the pool room). The Pub has recently been extensively refurbished and now boasts 1st class facilities and comforts. The spacious lounge bar/restaurant retains its period "feel" but has been re-furnished and decorated with great taste and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly.
Blockley Village Shop & Café (blockleyshop.com): The community owned shop and café is the hub of the village. The shop offers a wide range of basic groceries and necessities, and a tempting array of local products, including farm meat and free-range eggs, daily deliveries of local fruit and veg, freshly baked bread and locally made ready meals. Logs are generally stocked in winter. The licensed café is open all day, serving breakfasts, lunches, coffees and teas, and home-baked cakes. Take-away hot and cold food, including croissants, pastries and baguettes, is also very popular. The café, where free broadband is available, is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors of all ages.
L'endroit idéal pour une escapade dans les Cotswolds. Charmant, calme et confortable. La ville elle-même est pittoresque et proche de tout, la maison a tout ce dont vous avez besoin et les hôtes sont faciles à contacter. Les instructions données sont parfaites (faites attention aux détails sur la façon de vous y rendre, la descente est beaucoup plus facile en voiture). J'y retournerais sans hésiter.
