Medlar Jam Cheltenham, Gloucestershire

Property Description

Spread across three floors, there's nothing poky about this cottage in the Cotswolds. Everything's done on a large scale here, from the open-concept kitchen-slash-dining area and the spacious living room, to the expansive, enclosed garden with plenty of room for dogs and youngsters to run about in, as well as a children's play area, trampoline and sandpit. While this exterior is undoubtedly impressive, the interior has been featured in both Country Homes & Interiors and 25 Beautiful Homes magazines, and it's not hard to see why — the bursts of bold pattern against pastel backdrops are instantly uplifting. It'll prove to be a lovely place to rest up sore limbs after long days out on one of the walking trails that start nearby. Alternatively, you can head to one of the two pubs within a five-minute walk in the surrounding village of Guiting Power.

*Booking parties are permitted to exceed the overall occupancy figure of eleven by three infants
