About this property

A beautifully themed Cotswold cottage with a modern but classic country interior

A boutique two-bedroom cottage with modern living areas beautifully appointed with bespoke furniture and finishes. We have lovingly assembled dramatic, full-sized, textured murals, carefully-chosen soft furnishings, and custom wall art to create a contemporary home-from-home feeling that at once invites our guests to explore the whimsical and mysterious connections with Arthur Conan Doyle’s late Victorian England. Reimagine his iconic consulting detective on a new, yet familiar case in the unspoiled beauty of our quiet Cotswolds village. The cottage theme begins in the cosy living room, where a tropical wall mural sets the tone for our botanist's retreat, complete with study desk and period microscope. Across the hall is a modern kitchen-dining area complete with solid oak kitchen chairs and sheepskin throws. Upstairs, we offer two beautiful bedrooms: a luxurious main bedroom with queen-sized bed, twin closets and ensuite shower room; and a twin bedroom with two single beds with a playful jungle theme.

Merripit Cottage is nestled at the end of a private drive on the very edge of tranquil Broad Campden, with a beautiful view across the bucolic Gloucestershire countryside. We are only 15 minutes on foot from the famous market town of Chipping Campden, renowned across England for its uniquely preserved terraced high street, as well as its many local pubs and restaurants. A short drive or pleasant afternoon’s hike away stands Broadway Tower, with its breathtaking scenic views across the Vale of Evesham. The town of Broadway itself, notable for the Lygon Arms where Oliver Cromwell is thought once to have stayed during the English Civil War era, is only 12 minutes away by car; and the iconic town of Stratford-upon-Avon, birthplace of William Shakespeare is only a 27-minute drive. Or why not enjoy one of the many local footpaths that criss-cross the very same green, undulating landscape that influenced J.R.R. Tolkien, and pay a visit to the Bell Inn in the local town of Moreton-in-Marsh, considered by many as the inspiration for “The Prancing Pony.”
