Overview
Tucked away in the buzzy Cotswold town of Stow-on-the-Wold is Stone Cottage, a pretty two bedroom getaway with a peaceful courtyard patio. Moments from the hustle and bustle of the market square, discover a fabulous country escape for those seeking to explore all that Stow has to offer.
Ground Floor
Step into the chic country kitchen with its retro Smeg fridge and essential AGA. The dining table seats four guests and is a perfect spot to enjoy breakfast treats from one of Stow’s artisan bakeries. After a day spent browsing antiques and sampling local ale, the sociable kitchen is a lovely space to gather, cook and enjoy a meal together in the evening.
Next door, curl up by the fireplace in the elegantly presented sitting room with its stylish Loaf sofa, modern furniture, raw oak beams, and exposed brick. Or relax upon the window seat with a cup of tea and a riveting book.
First Floor
Upstairs there are two bedrooms for guests. With a vaulted ceiling, natural light and calming colours, the master bedroom is heaven. There is a king size bed and plenty of wardrobe space for your belongings. The second bedroom has a double bed with stylish bright linens, hanging space for clothes and a honey-coloured Cotswold stone wall.
The shared family bathroom has warm rustic floorboards, smart Farrow & Ball colours and a lovely bath with a large overhead shower.
Outside
A pretty archway of shrubbery leads you to the front door of the cottage and the outside courtyard, where a table and chairs are set up for warm summer nights with a glass of wine or breakfasts in the sunshine.
Dogs
Stone Cottage is happy to accept one dog for a fee of £40 per dog. We kindly ask that your dog is never left unattended, and does not go on any of the furniture or upstairs.
