About this property

Delightful Cottage Retreat

Summary:

Nestled in the heart of the idyllic village of Lower South Wraxhall, this beautiful country cottage is the perfect place to get away from it all. Just north of the historic town of Bradford on Avon, 20 minutes to Bath and sitting within the Cotswolds, the cottage is well placed for exploring.

Beautifully decorated and well equipped for blissful summer days or cosy winter evenings you are guaranteed to have a special stay.



The Space:

Upon entering the cottage you arrive into the kitchen. The kitchen has been beautifully renovated to a high spec and is fully equipped for your stay. This includes an over with hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer and a Lavazza espresso coffee machine. Here there is also a dining table that comfortably seats six.



The stylish living room leads off from the kitchen, with comfortable sofa and lounge chairs, smart TV and a wood burning fire. A perfect place to curl up with a book and unwind.



Stairs from the lounge take you to the upstairs. There is a spacious master bed room with a king sized bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers. The second bedroom is also spacious and has two single beds and a wardrobe. Both rooms have dual aspect windows that look over the pretty garden and surrounding village. A lovely modern bathroom with elegant tiling has a walk in shower.



Outside of the property the double kitchen doors lead onto a patio with a table and chairs with parasol that seats four. Beyond is a luscious grass lawn and pretty planted beds.



The gravel driveway offers parking that is shared with the cottage next door.



The Longs Arms pub is just a short walk across the fields to the upper village and free range eggs are available at the farm a short walk down the lane.



Summer or winter we believe that you will find the cottage to be a comfortable retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life while retaining the amenities of a modern world.



If you are a larger party, there is a gorgeous two bedroom cottage next door that sleeps 4 that is also available to rent. Please contact us for availability.



Guest Access:

Guests have access to the entire cottage during their stay.



The Neighborhood:

The cottage is located in the heart of the peaceful and picturesque Wiltshire village of Lower South Wraxhall, home to the award winning country pub - The Long Arms and three miles to Bradford on Avon and the Georgian city of Bath is within easy reach.



Getting Around:

Public transport options are limited so we would recommend arriving with your own or a hire car.

The house was just as described. It's in the countryside in a cluster of similar houses. Groceries/gas/restaurants etc are about 15-20 mins away so you'll want to arrive with food and drink.The house was cosy and the setting is spectacular. We were there when it was windy and rainy and imagine it is even better on a sunny day.Trips to Bath and other nearby cities were easy so it was a good base.Our only small complaints were that both the bathroom was a bit more instagram friendly than functional when with a family (those basin sinks are silly). Similar in the kitchen with a low sink that splashed easily. But again these are very small complaints. We enjoyed our stay and would happily return if we are in the area.

Delightful cottage retreat, exactly as described! We ate in by the fire on our first and last evening, and walked to the pub on our second evening across the way in 11 minutes! We were well rewarded there with a beautiful old building, and lovely food and staff.Our stay was perfect and catered for our every need. Thank you!
