Extra Amenities

This is a very sweet terraced cottage nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds, on the main road in the village of Bourton-on-the-Hill. Dating back to the 17th century, Cosy Cottage has kept many original features including low, exposed beams. The feature fireplace is a lovely focal point in the living/dining room, and each bedroom is on a separate floor. The kitchen is of modest size but is fully equipped with everything you need. The cottage garden makes the most of the sun with a raised terrace with garden furniture - the ideal place for dining al fresco or simply enjoying a glass of wine at the end of a full day sightseeing.
