About this property

Traditional Cotswold Stone Cottage, Winchcombe, Cotswolds Way.

No 5 is a cosy traditional cottage in an unrivalled position in the traditional Cotswold town of Winchcombe, decorated and furnished to a high standard so you can enjoy all the comforts of home, all within just a stone’s throw from all the local amenities.
Centrally located in the heart of Winchcombe. Vineyard Street is one of the most beautiful streets in the Cotswolds and leads to the drive of Sudeley Castle. Quite literally the infamous Cotswold Way passes the front door, along with many other easily accessible national trails. We are a perfect location for walking, cycling or simply relaxing as hard as you want to!
The town is a fabulous place to enjoy a romantic break or time exploring the area with friends or family. There are many great places to eat and many lovely food shops and a deli to purchase local produce and cook up a feast to enjoy back at the cottage in the lovely garden or cosied up in front of the fire.
The owners are local and are very happy to be on hand to recommend local walks, cycle routes or places to visit and eat.
The cottage has a secure rear garden, very suitable for dogs. Equipped with garden table and chairs, sun loungers and a BBQ.
There are plenty of walks right from the doorstep. The local pubs are all very dog welcoming ...

Delightful Cotswold Cottage.
Highly recommend this lovely little stone cottage. It was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Our host, Emily, was very helpful with info about travelling to and from the town and responded to enquiries quickly. Winchcombe is a great place from which to hike and there was lots of info in the cottage about local trails.

Lovely traditional cottage
Lovely traditional cottage, close to castle and all amenities. Let down by the weather but this is England. Unfortunately only a couple of places to eat at the time we were there as the corner cupboard was closed and so was the old bakery and plaisterers arms didn’t have a cook. lol cal Indian was amazing. Check in process was easy and hosts on other end of the phone if you needed anything

Lovely little cottage with parking. Little garden at the back is gorgeous. Great location in lovely Winchcombe. We were attending an event at Prescott hillclimb all week so it was very handy. The owner was so helpful and always on hand. Will be booking again.

Great location, let down by cleanliness
Great location with many walks from the doorstep, also close to shops and restaurants. Cottage let down by the cleanliness and the smell of dogs. The downstairs needs a deep clean with all the soft furnishings needing a wash, the bathroom white wear was clean however there was thick dust on the skirting boards, cobwebs and mould on the ceiling. The garden was enclosed and a great bonus but the photos were from years ago as the garden was overgrown, lots of weeds with no maintenance. We had to sweep the patio, scrub the patio table and chairs and clean the inside of the bbq from cobwebs before we could use it. The cottage itself is a lovely stone cottage and wouldn’t take much to make this it outstanding with tidying the garden, a deep clean of everything with redecorating the bathroom. The beds were very comfortable, lots of useful information especially for all the walks locally, easy check in and communication from the owner was great, kitchen was compact but had everything you needed. It is a bonus you can bring your dog (we also had a dog with us) and this cottage is obviously used by lots of dog owners. However this is apparent with the doggy smell as soon as you open the door. If you allow dogs to stay in the cottage this requires a deep clean after each visit. From the stains on the sofas, chairs and the smell of the cushions and blankets, dogs have used all of these. Such a shame as the cottage itself is lovely.

A great three week stay!
We just finished up a three weeks stY. Winchcomb, one of our favorite towns in the UK. The cottage is in a great location and is a quaint grade 2 listed property, making it comfortably rustic, but equipped with all the mod cons. A two minute walk and you are in the middle of town. Comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, fast internet, and smart TV. Parking was not a problem. In the three weeks we stayed we parked either directly out front or one or two spaces either side of the front door. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed for cooking on the nights we chose to eat at home. Plenty of pubs and good takeout for those nights you’d rather not cook. Emma was a great host, easy to work with, extremely communicative, and had loads of local advice. A great enclosed yard for our dog round it out our visit. If you are considering a stay in Winchcombe, I would put this place on your short list.

Fantastic house. Emma was very easy to deal with, she communicated frequently beforehand and checked how we were going during our stay. The location was great for checking out other parts of the Cotswolds and the town of Winchcombe is amazing.

Perfect bolt hole
We’ve had an amazing stay over the new year break. Location is perfect just at the bottom of the lane leading to the castle. The spectacle of light event is worth recommending. The cottage is like the one from the Holiday movie, just perfect for a festive (not only) break. In the middle of the village so all restaurants within a few minutes. The cottage is just lovely, two lovely and comfortable bedrooms, great downstairs and we’ve used the gas stove for the extra coziness. The bottle of wine in the fridge was a welcome surprise, thank you. We had a fantastic and relaxing stay!

Excellent holiday let
A well appointed property with everything necessary to enjoy a marvellous short break. A point of special note were the very comfortable beds, which enabled the whole part to enjoy exceptional rest at night. A quiet location aoart from one lovely evening of church bells (practice?). Be very likely to look again at this property for our next break.

Break away in the Cotswolds with our pet dog 🐾
The cottage is absolutely beautiful in a picturesque street. We were blessed with lovely weather & was able to make full use of the pretty enclosed garden, completely dog friendly. We were so comfortable in the cosy cottage & a great base to explore the surrounding areas.

Cottage with great garden
Emma and Jim are very hospitable and helpful hosts. The cottage is well appointed with modern appliances and convenient to amenities and all sorts of Cotswold activities. It is a fun house to be in. Great hiking in the area, which is picturesque. The immediate neighbors are fine, but the neighborhood does have several houses where dogs are allowed to bark outside nonstop.

Enjoying in Winchcombe
We had a great time in Winchcombe. A beautiful, cozy accommodation in a fantastic cycling and walking area. The accommodation is fully equipped and neatly maintained. A great enclosed garden. The area is quiet and plenty of parking. Nice pubs around the corner. Jim and Emma are fantastic hosts and give great tips (bike tours). They are very welcoming.

Host profile image
Hello, my husband Jim and I have lived in Winchcombe for since 2003 and we love the town, it has a great community spirit, very friendly, great pubs, restaurants, shops, deli, galleries and antique emporiums.
Jim is a really keen mountain biker (I dabble on the easier trails!) and we love walking our lovely pointer Tatti (short for Taitttinger!) and socialising with our friends. We love welcoming guests to the cottage and will be happily on hand for any advice required by our visitors. Any questions you have about the cottage and local area, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be delighted to help ... Emma and Jim

Why they chose this property

We already live in the town and wanted to buy and second property as a holiday let business... Vineyard St is one of the most beautiful Cotswolds Streets and leads to the gates of Sudeley Castle

What makes this property unique

Vineyard Street is an unrivaled position in our small town, you can park for free on the street in front of the cottage and then everything is in very easy walking distance. Winchcombe is a truly unique town, where visitors quickly feel like locals and get to enjoy a real part of life in a Cotswold town
