Luxury historic cottage with spectacular views - close to Bath

Unwind with the breathtaking views and luxurious accommodation at this unique and tranquil 1700s country cottage. This stunning getaway is in an official Area of Natural Outstanding Beauty on the edge of the Cotswolds. Cuddle up in front of the fire in the snug, sink into the deep luxurious bath with a view and be hypnotised by the sunset from the star-gazing terrace and three-tiered garden. Forest walks and country pubs on the doorstep and the Roman spa city of Bath a short drive away. Whether a family or friends getaway, the house has everything to suit your needs.

Amazing beautiful quiet luxury in a historic setting
The house is quaint but modern, has all the amenities, the tub and shower are spa level, and the host was helpful with anything (as were the lovely neighbors who greeted us briefly). I loved this house so much - I want to buy one just like it. Thank you for an incredible short but wonderful trip!

Stunning views and fantastic location!
We had the most amazing stay at Tumbledown Cottage! The views are outstanding and the cottage itself is perfect for a relaxing stay. We found everything we needed in the kitchen to cook up great local produce from the many farm shops Isla kindly recommended- enjoying the view while we ate in the conservatory. The proximity to Bath, nature, and the Cotswolds can’t be beat. Isla provided a lot of local info and recommendations that we took advantage of too and was great with communication. We would highly recommend staying here and can’t wait for a future visit! Thanks Isla!

Spectacular view
This lovely cottage is on a hillside that overlooks a beautiful valley. We enjoyed sitting in the conservatory to relax in the morning or after a day site seeing. When the sun is out the conservatory can get a little to hot. There are a lot of stairs to manuver, but in spite of that we the many stairs we loved our stay.

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely home. Located for easy access to Bath and the Cotswolds ... would absolutely stay there again. The conservatory, with its wonderful views, was our favorite place to eat, hang out and play cards. It was simply beautiful!

Bath weekend
The property was well placed for access to Bath with only a short drive to the city centre. The views from the property were very picturesque. Unfortunately we did find the steps down to the property very steep and covered in leaves which made them slippery. We think we would have felt a bit safer if there was a hand rail as some of the people in our party were over 75.

Sweet Country Property
Beautiful cottage with idyllic views. Built on a country lane with 3-tiered garden (not suitable for some). Was lovely that it was dog-friendly. Easy drive to Chippenham, Trowbridge, Avebury, Salisbury and the lovely countryside. Convenient washer/dryer, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Just lovely!
