Petunia Cottage South Cerney, Gloucestershire

Property Description

Situated in the quiet village of Barnsley, this inviting cottage is the perfect base from which to explore the glorious Cotswold countryside. The exposed timber beams, solid oak floors and an inglenook fireplace are part of the restored interiors. And a smart Rangemaster cooker, freestanding bathtub and bright, floral print upholstery bring a modern-day feel to the place.

If it’s chilly out, fire up the wood-burning stove and settle in with a cup of tea. But if the weather’s fine, bowl out into the garden for picnics or barbecues in the balmy sunshine. Spend afternoons exploring your surroundings – follow bridleways through rolling meadows or jump in the car to idyllic Bibury, a six-minute drive away. Visit the Farmer’s Market in Cirencester to pick up treats for later, then head back to your postcode from a well-earned gin and tonic in The Village Pub – it’s only a two-minute stroll from your doorstep.
