Overview

This delightful abode is the perfect romantic getaway, with an inviting living space and cosy log burner for the colder evenings, a quaint kitchen, and a charming bedroom, all decorated in beautiful country interiors. If that isn't enough, Wood Cottage is dog-friendly, with its own private garden at the front with patio areas, a summer house with garden seats, and a table, making it a beautiful sun trap in the summer months.

Location Information

Fairford sits on a pretty stretch of the River Coln and is famous for its parish church of St Mary’s, which is perhaps the finest ‘wool church’ in the country - being the only church with a complete set of 28 medieval stained glass windows telling the story of the Bible. Market towns of Lechlade and the Roman capital of the Cotswolds, Cirencester, are in easy striking distance.

Every Wednesday the market square is busy with a traditional market, and a continental market twice a year and a magical Christmas market on the first Friday of December.

For three days every year RAF Fairford hosts the world’s largest military air show – the Royal International Air Tattoo - book early as tickets sell out quickly.

The town and surrounding area is crisscrossed with many footpaths, to enjoy lovely walks in the Cotswold countryside and to explore the nearby Cotswold water park lakes. The nearby villages of Eastleach, Bibury, Hatherop, Quenington, Coln St.Aldwyns and a wealth of other beautiful Cotswold villages offering wonderful scenery and fantastic pubs and restaurants, all within a short walk, cycle or drive.

4.7/5

Cottage was warm and cosy, tastefully decorated with high quality fixtures and fittings. Kitchen pretty well equipped but frying pans need replacing and the plates were too big for the dishwasher. Doorway to kitchen quite low if you are over 5ft10 might be an issue. There is a fold up table to eat food from but nowhere convenient to open it up and put the chairs without them being in the way. Off road parking would have been nice but the enclosed garden was good for the dog.

5/5

This is a very attractive little cottage with everything you need for a holiday stay in the market town of Fairford. Small kitchen but very usable, great living room with wood burning stove (central heating as well) and a very nice bedroom and bathroom with a large shower cubicle. Car parking on the road right outside the garden gate. Fairford is a very nice friendly town with 5 dog friendly pubs, our favorite 2 minutes from this cottage.

5/5

Super cosy little cottage. Perfect for two people and a (not huge) dog. Brilliantly located, minutes walk from a number of pubs and shops in town but on a really quiet road. Everything has been thought of; pre-made fireplace, instructions to do it yourself, shoe dryer, soft blankets, games and puzzles for the inside days, guides for walks, pubs, food etc on days out. Loved it.
