Description Keeper of the Cottage: Lower Swell

This 19th-century cottage may come with a lot of history, but it also offers a contemporary sanctuary. From the cosy rooms and soft furnishings to the wood-burning stove, it’s the perfect setting to switch off and enjoy the timeless charm of the Cotswolds. There is also a little garden with apple trees – providing a sweet spot for warm-weather barbecues. Children's amenities can be arranged on request and there is free street parking available outside the cottage. From here, you can follow hiking and cycle trails straight from the door. Plus, it’s just one mile to Stow-on-the-Wold, while Cheltenham is also within easy driving distance.
