The Coach House has an exclusive feel as you take the long, winding driveway to the property's off-road parking for two cars, where you will find the impressive building nestled in a tranquil spot. Entering the property, a smart, contemporary interior awaits, however full of character with original features throughout; gather guests in the open plan living/dining room on the sofas for an evening of games by the warmth of the woodburning stove, or walk under the original stone archway into the connected conservatory, where you can set the dining table for six for a hearty breakfast with garden views. A contemporary kitchen also looks out onto the rich garden where you can prepare picnics for your walks into the Cotswolds or rustle up a hot meal for your guests with an induction hob, electric oven, microwave, and fridge/freezer. When it's time to retire, you will find a quaintly decorated, ground-floor double room with a snug bench seat set into the wall, storage space and an en-suite shower room, beautifully tiled with a walk-in shower to rinse off the day. All guests will relish the spacious, ground-floor bathroom with a stylish finish; set your towel on the heated towel rail and unwind with an evening bubble bath, or step into the large walk-in shower to warm up after a long hike. A convenient cloakroom sits just next door with a washing machine, basin and WC, ideal for a quick freshen up! Two lovely bedrooms sit upstairs, another double with a sofa and a quaint round window overlooking the garden, and a spacious twin with a pretty feature fireplace, both having storage space to unpack and make yourself at home. This pet-friendly holiday home has plenty of space for one or two well-behaved dogs to settle down for the evenings or wander the fantastic multi-level garden; follow the stone steps up to the lawn area where you can play games or set the outdoor seating for an alfresco dinner surrounded by lovely landscapes. Guests are free to wander around The Lodge field, which you pass through when driving up to the property, where wildlife lovers may spot buzzards, barn owls and deer, with idyllic views across Gloucester to May Hill. Be sure to explore your fantastic surroundings with the peaceful remains of Great Witcombe Roman Villa nearby to The Coach House, or for great country walks take the public footpath at the back of the property, which links up to the Cotswolds Way, taking you from Chipping Camden all the way to Bath. Alternatively, follow the public path up to the Cheese Rolling slope on Coopers Hill, used for Brockworth's famed annual Cheese-Rolling event, which provides fantastic views towards the Malverns; following the path in the other direction takes you to Painswick Beacon, looking towards Wales and the River Severn, whilst Crickley Hill Country Park is a short drive away with several trails to explore and a café.
