About this property
Cotswolds Enchanting Cottage: Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort
Summary:
Stonemason's Cottage is a quintessential Cotswolds cottage with three bedrooms, a huge garden and interiors that have a contemporary cool twist. The property is central for village life in South Cerney, being only 10 minutes walk from four pubs/restaurants, and 10 minutes walk from the lakes and activities of Cotswold Water Park. The cottage sleeps up to 6 guests in 3 double/kingsize bedrooms. Downstairs is kitchen, living room, separate working space, dining room and garden room.
The Space:
The cottage is grade II listed and has been completely renovated in 2023. It has 3 spacious kingsize/double bedrooms, 1 bathroom with modern walk in shower. Spacious downstairs with lounge, dedicated office space, dining room, garden room, kitchen. Huge, fully enclosed garden. Right in the centre of South Cerney village.
Guest Access:
Guests have access to the entire property for their sole use
The Neighborhood:
You are staying in the heart of South Cerney village. The cottage is on a quiet main road with ample, free on street parking. The nearest pubs, fish and chip shop, Indian takeaway, deli serving breakfast are only 10 minutes walk in either direction. Cotswold Water Park is on your doorstep with all the activities and views that it has to offer. There are multiple circular walks from your doorstep and there are two small supermarkets within 10 minutes walk. Cirencester, the Roman capital of the Cotswolds, is only 4 miles away (10 minutes in the car).
Getting Around:
A car is ideal for exploring the Cotswold villages, but not essential. The cottage is on the no.51 bus route that passes between Cheltenham and Swindon. Kemble Station is the nearest railway station (about 15 minutes away), directly out of London Paddington or Gloucester/Cheltenham. There are many flat cycle routes around the village and the water park which can easily be enjoyed and cycle hire is available nearby.

About the host
Hosted by Housekeepers

We are Barry and Jo and we have an amazing collection of Cotswold holiday lodges on Cotswold Water Park near the old Roman town of Cirencester with most of them dog friendly.
We’ve been coming to this beautiful area for many years and about 5 years ago we decided to make the move permanent. We set up our company in 2018, starting with our own holiday home on Windrush lake but as you can see from our portfolio now, we have grown quite considerably!We love to travel and just before the “you know what pandemic” we spent 12 months travelling around the world ending up in New Zealand for Christmas and New Year and then working our way up to Hawaii and North, Central and South America. We think we know what it takes to get a place right for our fantastic guests but we are always learning!
We couldn’t do this without our fantastic team which is growing year by year. Unlike many of the larger companies selling holiday lets we, and our team, know all of our properties intimately because we provide the full service from cleaning and hosting through to managing the hot tubs, the plants on the decking and even window cleaning! Jo, Adele and Meg are the last ones to visit your holiday lodge just before you get there to make sure the place is perfect for your stay – you may even bump into one of them on your way in!
