On the first floor, the two bedrooms both have superb views over the valley with a generous family bathroom completing the accommodation.

Sitting at the top of the plot, the gardens are mainly to the front of the cottage and offer lawns surrounded by mature shrub borders. A level paved terrace to side is ideal for al fresco entertaining. The gated driveway offers parking for several cars along with the detached garage.

Situation

Painswick, the Queen of the Cotswolds , is a thriving community nestling in a delightful Cotswolds setting. Largely constructed from locally quarried stone, the town has many beautiful buildings dating back as far as the 14th Century. Painswick Churchyard is famous for its impressive array of table tombs and its 99 yew trees about which folklore holds that if a 100th should grow the devil will pull it out.

Painswick offers several local shops, galleries, tearooms and restaurants along with a primary school and playgroup, a pharmacy, doctor and dentist surgeries and two public houses whilst the surrounding towns provide a comprehensive range of social, recreational and retail amenities to suit all tastes and budgets.

Recreational opportunities include tennis, rugby, bowls and cricket clubs with many other groups meeting at the Painswick Centre. Nearby Cheltenham plays host to a series of festivals throughout the year embracing topics ranging from racing to literature and music to science
