Holly Cottage is a beautiful, detached Cotswold stone property with a perfect combination of character features, including an inglenook fireplace with woodburner, an oak-beamed conservatory, together with modern and stylish interiors
Situated just on the edge of the historic village of Ampney Crucis, with the local pub, The Crown at Ampney Brook just round the corner and the centre of Cirencester only 3miles away, this delightful cottage provides a great base for a getaway-from-it-all holiday or a weekend break to experience all the Cotswolds has to offer, whatever the season.
This Cotswold stone cottage has a really charming and homely feel, balancing modern home comforts without losing its country character.
Two double bedrooms and one single-bedded room provide very comfortable lodging for up to 5 adults and the possible addition of a cot makes the cottage suitable for both family holidays and romantic hideaway weekends. The huge sofas in the Sitting Room and the Conservatory encourage relaxing evenings by the fire and the super-comfy kingsize beds and very quiet location make the cottage an ideal spot for a restful weekend.
Holly Cottage makes a perfect base for both a romantic Cotswolds weekend and a family holiday as it is well placed for all the delights the Cotswolds has to offer and, while exuding rural charm, is also just 3miles from the centre of Cirencester, making a great combination of country and convenience.
The cottage is also often used by families and friends attending weddings at Cripps Barn, and the Old Gore at Fosse Cross, at Wild Thyme & Honey in Ampney itself and at The Swan in nearby Bibury, all within a 5mile drive from Holly Cottage.
Ampney Crucis is brilliantly located for all the great Cotswold sights and adventures with Cirencester and the Cotswold Water Park on the doorstep and easy access to Cheltenham, Stow-on-the-Wold and Oxford.
Trips to Blenheim Palace, Daylesford, Bibury, Adam Henson's Cotswold Farm Park, the Cotswold Wildlife Park and visits to Chastleton, Snoswhill, Stanway, Chedworth Roman Villa, the extraordinary gardens of Hidcote and Painswick, Batsford and Westonbirt could keep the most demanding groups fully amused. While The Cotswold Water Park, just a 10minute, 5mile drive away, offers not only a beach (!) but also sailing, sailboarding, canoeing, archery, shooting, golf, fishing and all sorts of child-friendly fun.
