Cottage with open fire,

Stow-on-the-Wold 1.4 miles. Nestled in the charming village of Lower Swell in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty near Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire is The Old School House. This fabulous, stone-fronted, dog-friendly holiday home benefits from a wonderful location with easy access to ample walking opportunities and the wonders of the Cotswolds as well as a stylish interior completed by five beautifully-appointed bedrooms; the perfect choice for families and friends looking to explore all of Gloucestershire. Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and head straight into the sitting room where you can unwind on the plush sofas while the crackling woodburning stove creates a homely ambience. Later, step into the fully-equipped kitchen/diner to rustle up a tasty meal that can then be enjoyed around the spacious dining table. If the sun is shining, why not step outside to indulge in an alfresco affair upon the patio furniture, the perfect place to raise a toast to your well-earned retreat. When the stars appear overhead, head back inside to wash off the day’s adventures in either the bathroom or shower room before retiring to one of five bedrooms; choose between three doubles or a double and family room with double and single housed on the second-floor. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic holiday home head into the nearby town of Stow-on-the-Wold where you can stock up on all of your self-catering essentials at the local stores or supermarkets or treat your loved ones to a well-earned break from the kitchen with delicious meals at pubs like The Kings Arms, The Porch House or Sheep on Sheep Street. The dwelling’s setting in the picturesque Cotswolds AONB provides keen ramblers with an abundance of walking and hiking opportunities including Greystones Farm Nature Reserve, Leckhampton Hill and Foxhole Reserve which all give breath-taking views across the English countryside. History is also woven throughout the encompassing countryside, immerse yourself in the area’s past by visiting the National Trust’s Chastleton House, The Rollright Stones and the unique Chedworth Roman Villa or embark on a leisurely stroll through Snowshill Manor and Gardens. All this and more awaits at The Old School House.
