Tucked away in this idyllic hilltop Cotswold village, Mill Cottage enjoys a pretty setting, off the beaten track with elevated views over the village roof tops to the valley beyond.

Built in traditional stone, yet extended in more recent history, the cottage provides accommodation rich in character. A sheltered courtyard provides access into the cottage whilst also offering a pretty spot to enjoy a morning coffee. The main door opens directly into the sitting room, where a traditional fireplace with woodburner inset forms an attractive focal point, stairs rise to the first floor and a doorway leads into the kitchen. Wooden floorboards extend throughout the sitting room. The kitchen provides room for dining and boasts a double aspect outlook with a view over the garden. Base units offer storage and there is room for an oven as well plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher. Above the kitchen is a useful loft space, which can be accessed from outside. From the first floor landing doors open to bedroom two and a shower room. Both enjoy an outlook over the garden. The main attic bedroom is positioned on the top floor, where A frame beams further add to the room’s appeal. The property is gas centrally heated.
