Nestling in its own high walled garden, secluded and quiet yet less than 5 minutes walk from Stow-on-the-Wold Town centre, South View is the perfect place to stay to make the most of your Cotswold experience. This beautifully presented, detached Cotswold stone cottage provides a wonderful combination of old world charm and modern day luxury and amenity. The extensive renovations have been true to the cottage’s heritage and the Stow-on-the-Wold area, whilst at the same time providing high levels of comfort and style. Access to the cottage is via a small gate which leads into the south facing garden, the perfect retreat for a summer barbecue or a quiet coffee and good read! Through into the lounge/dining room you will find a large log burner for those cosy nights in, as well as two large comfy sofas, a Plasma wall TV, DVD player, CD player and plenty of books and games for you to use at your leisure. The cottage was recently featured in the June edition of House Beautiful.

Stow-on-the-Wold lies within the heart of the Cotswolds area and demonstrates outstanding natural beauty. It is the highest town in the Cotswolds at about 800 feet above sea level and was built mainly in the 17th and 18th century after the Battle of Stow - the last battle in the English Civil War, and has witnessed secluded growth and prosperity throughout the Iron, Stone and Bronze Ages. The Cotswolds Wool Town is situated just beside the Roman Fosseway set on a rounded hill giving it the Iron Age meaning of “meeting place on the hill”. The Town has many fantastic places to see with most of the buildings being listed due to their individual historical and architectural importance. Many of these buildings date back to as early as the 10th Century. The Church alone has stood on site for over 1,000 years and was built in dedication to Edward the Martyr, King of the West Saxons who was murdered in AD 978. Other exceptional historical places of interest include St. Edwards House, the Town Stocks, the Roman Wells and Maugersbury Manor. It is even said that the Royalist Hotel on Digbeth Street is the oldest Inn in England, so that’s surely worth a visit and a pint of fine Ale! Stow-on-the-Wold is a truly bustling market town offering many great shops - ideal for searching for that special gift or even a fabulous old antique. The Town’s stores offer fresh and organic produce and the area is littered with excellent restaurants, pubs and bars which help heighten your memorable Cotswolds experience. Whether it is a well earned short stay or a longer holiday you’re looking for, Stow-on-the-Wold is the perfect place to unwind, retreat and immerse yourself in a small Town full of historical, architectural and unforgettable pleasure.
