About this property

The Coach House, Hawling, near Cheltenham , Gloucestershire

This charming, detached, former coach house dates back to the 14th century and has been sympathetically renovated, ensuring original features can still be enjoyed, including exposed beams, a stone fireplace and external barn doors.

The sociable living accommodation includes a spacious dining kitchen with french doors out to the terrace and garden, and leads up a couple of steps to the inviting sitting room with its cosy open fire. A small double bedroom is also located on the ground floor, along with a shower room and separate cloakroom/WC. Upstairs, a king-size bedroom and a pretty twin room have use of the family bathroom. Breath-taking views over meadows to distant fields below can be enjoyed from the house and gardens.

Outside, the terrace provides garden furniture for alfresco dining whilst enjoying views of the delightful, mature and generous surrounding gardens and fields. The adjoining field has a soothing pond, perfect for picnics or quiet contemplation. Within the gardens are various spots to sit and enjoy the planting and terraced trees, and a sculptured sphere adds to sense of grandeur; or escape to the fun shepherd's hut with a good book and a glass of wine.

It would be very easy to stay put within the grounds of this glorious Cotswold retreat, but further delights await nearby. A short drive away you will find the picturesque village of Guiting Power, which boasts a village shop, bakery and two village pubs. Just under 7 miles away is family friendly Bourton-on-the-Water (known as the 'Venice of the Cotswolds'); and charming Stow-on-the-Wold and cosmopolitan Cheltenham are less than 10 miles away.

Additional Information:
Children and infants welcome. A travel cot and highchair are available on request.
Sorry, no pets.
Parents, please be aware, there is an unfenced pond at the bottom of the field. Please ensure that all children are supervised.
Whether you'd like a celebratory meal, Ottolenghi style sharing platters, a picnic, brunch, afternoon tea or a selection of canapés to accompany an early evening drink, contact Becci on 07748 077224 who will be delighted to discuss your requirements.
Todenham Manor Farm can deliver a box of fresh local meat to your cottage for your stay.

Beautiful property but not quite as advertised

We enjoyed our stay overall and loved the property; beautiful grounds with gardens and farm animals and lots of bird life. The cottage itself however isn’t quite as advertised. We were a group of 4 adults. The main bedroom (‘master bedroom’) is definitely not a king sized bed. It is a queen. The other upstairs room with two twin beds were unusable as is. Both boxsprings were very old and couldn’t support an adult without caving in. We moved the mattresses to the floor to make them function. The downstairs bedroom listed as double can only sleep one adult due to the sloping ceiling. The downstairs shower is a a converted closet and can only fit children. The upstairs shower ‘eco-flow’ can’t manage hot water. Overall our stay was manageable and due to the beauty of the surroundings we enjoyed our stay, but using this as a base for hiking in the Cotswolds wasn’t ideal as our sleeps were not great due to the beds and showering was challenging in both of the two bathrooms. Our rating is lower because the listings description doesn’t match what you actually get in the coach house.

Idyllic Retreat

The Coach House is set in the stunning grounds of the owners’ property, yet the owners are not at all intrusive. The views are beautiful and the property is well equipped and comfortable. The welcome hamper was also a lovely touch. The surrounding area is beautiful and the location of Hawling is not too far from bigger towns such as Cheltenham and Cirencester. We would definitely recommend this property if you are looking for an idyllic, countryside get away.

Wonderful Christmas Holiday

Had a lovely time hosting our English relatives for the Christmas Holiday. The kitchen was well stocked. We prepared all manner of dishes , main courses to desserts. Actually the pictures don’t do justice to how large and roomy the kitchen and main lounge was.We comfortably hosted Christmas dinner for 7. The location was ideal for us as our relatives from around the area could come and go and join us as they were able. The property is well appointed , beds are comfortable , and the countryside is quintessential Cotswolds. We would stay again definitely

Full of character with cosey homely feel

Gorgeous house. Very homely and cosey. The surroundings were very tranquil and the welcome hamper a lovely touch. The fresh ripe pears from the tree were an unexpected bonus. We had a wonderful weekend. Would highly recommend this property.
