About this property

The Vine - A Luxurious Cotswold Escape for Two.

Savour the stunning summer scapes of the Cotswolds with a last-minute escape to The Vine, a stylish 5★ hideaway for two in the heart of Winchcombe. This light, modern apartment offers the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds’ charming villages, independent shops, and scenic walking trails.
Fully booked summer 2026. Now taking bookings for September!

Your host, Amanda, has been welcoming guests for over a decade, and it shows in the luxurious touches and thoughtful details throughout this beautifully appointed space.

The Vine is a bespoke 5★ apartment designed for two, with generous outdoor space and a charming breeze house where you can relax and take in the gorgeous views in complete peace. Located just 8 miles north of Cheltenham, Winchcombe is the perfect base for exploring the picturesque villages of the north Cotswolds. The property also includes a private parking space on our driveway.

If you’re a racing enthusiast, Prestbury Park—home of the famous Cheltenham Gold Cup—is only a short drive away. With so much to discover in the area, you can enjoy wonderful walks straight from the doorstep or experience one of Cheltenham’s many festivals.

We have availability from 28th April. This is a perfect time to experience the picturesque Cotswolds during the quieter early summer months. Perfect for Spring walks or cosy pubs lunches.

The blend of a warm, modern interior filled with natural light and generous outdoor garden space makes The Vine a true gem—one that guests have been returning to ever since it opened. Downstairs, underfloor heating creates a cosy atmosphere, while the sky lantern and wide patio doors flood the space with daylight. You can unwind on the large sofa and watch nature right outside your door, or—if you need to work during your stay—take advantage of the fast Wi-Fi and bright, airy setting, with the dining table doubling perfectly as a desk.

The charming village of Broadway is just 5 miles away, known for its elegant high street and year-round twinkling lights. You can even hop aboard the heritage GWR steam train to explore nearby villages in classic Cotswold style.

And after a day discovering the area’s beautiful towns and countryside, return to the peace and quiet of The Vine on Langley Road—your haven in the Cotswolds.

Enter through your own private entrance into the limestone-floored sitting room, slip off your shoes, and enjoy the comfort of underfloor heating as you relax on the handmade Heals of London sofa. A wall-mounted 50-inch TV is perfect for catching up on sport or unwinding after a day exploring.

Upstairs, the bedroom suite features an inviting John Lewis king-size bed dressed in luxurious, high-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets and quilted covers. From the window, you can enjoy views towards Cleeve Hill, the highest point in the Cotswolds. The bathroom includes a slipper bath and separate shower, with underfloor-heated Travertine tiles to keep you cosy, and views out to Langley Hill.

Whether you’re cooking or ordering a takeaway, the granite-topped dining table—accented by Jasper Conran wall lighting—provides a stylish place to eat. A dishwasher makes tidying up effortless.

The landscaped terrace is yours to enjoy, whether you’re firing up the BBQ or relaxing with a chilled glass of wine from the fridge. Beyond the terrace, the lawn stretches out to open countryside and the rolling Cotswold hills.

Unlike many properties in Winchcombe, we offer a private parking space on our own driveway—a rare luxury in the town—and we’re only a short walk from the centre.

Why Winchcombe?
Often described as the hidden gem of the Cotswolds, Winchcombe truly has it all—even its own castle. Sudeley Castle, renowned for its 1,000 years of royal history and magnificent gardens, is just a short walk from the property.

Winchcombe is a paradise for walkers: the Cotswold Way, Gloucestershire Way, and Wychavon Way all pass through the town, while the Wardens Way and Windrush Way both start and finish here. For those seeking history and breathtaking scenery, Belas Knap, a Neolithic long barrow perched above Humblebee Wood, offers spectacular panoramic views. You can also discover the remains of a Roman villa hidden in a peaceful valley on lower ground.

The town proudly holds Walkers Are Welcome status and hosts an annual walking festival each May, as well as a growing music and arts festival. Despite being less well known than some of the classic Cotswold hotspots, Winchcombe enjoys a reputation as a truly fabulous destination, with more than 60 charming independent shops that draw in locals and visitors year-round.

Stroll among centuries-old buildings, including beautifully preserved medieval structures and several 15th-century coaching inns—now welcoming restaurants—all set against the backdrop of rolling countryside that stretches for miles.

So what are you waiting for? Come and discover Winchcombe.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Houghton-Brown

Host profile image
Paul and Amanda fell in love with Winchcombe when they moved here in 2002. In 2007, shortly after the birth of their second daughter, Paul spotted the potential in a property on a large plot that became available on Langley Road. Together, we have transformed the property into the family home with luxurious guest accommodation which it is today. Langley Road is a one of the quietest roads in Winchcombe. It is situated to the south west of the village and we are fortunate to see more tractors and horses on the road outside than cars. Most properties available in Winchcombe do not offer off road parking. The Vine is one of the only ones on offer which does as there is parking for one car on our private driveway where you can leave your car safely while walking in the Cotswolds.

Why they chose this property

The light and airy interior mingles with the garden and fields beyond the French doors at The Vine. Through the large French windows you can sit and enjoy the sunset over the garden. Once dark, look up through the beautiful skylight in the sitting room to admire the constellations.
Or from your own sunny patio you can sit quietly with a glass of wine and listen to the birdsong. The Vine has been running successfully as a holiday cottage since 2015 and with a background in the hotel industry Amanda knows how to look after her guests whether that is in the cleanliness & boutique hotel feel of the property or in her local knowledge of where to dine or what shows and festivals are on in Cheltenham or surrounding villages.
Upon arrival you will receive a welcome pack with recommendations of places to visit during your stay. In the fridge you will find a complimentary bottle of wine to celebrate your first night of the holiday. In the larder a selection of teas, coffee, sugar, flour, cooking oil and rice are also provided. Tea towels and washing up cloths are a thoughtful addition. For people who enjoy cooking a single induction hob and combination microwave oven are also provided. You really only need your own fresh ingredients which can be bought from the local grocery store.
Parking is a premium in Winchcombe and many properties are unable to offer a designated parking space. The Vine can offer you secure off road parking for one car at the property address. From The Vine it is only a short 5 minute walk into the centre of Winchcombe where all the amenities, shops, pubs and restaurants are. For some people they park up and really don't use their car all stay as Winchcombe is in the heart of the Cotswold Walking Route and one can escape into the countryside as soon as you step outside the property. If you need somewhere to store your bikes or wellie boots, additional space can be provided.

What makes this property unique

Quiet Location within a short walk of the town centre.
Stunning new hand made Breeze House over looking the beautiful Cotswold escarpment beyond.
Lighting and Heating within this beautiful bespoke Breeze House just at the end of the garden for your private enjoyment. Take a bottle of wine and watch the sun set over the hill beyond.
Off road parking provided on our paved driveway. Secure off road parking is a rare find in Winchcombe and certainly a unique benefit of this property.
