  • "The cottage is located well for exploring the Cotswolds area."

    It is nicely decorated with comfortable beds, plenty of hot water and some welcoming gifts. The parking is particularly difficult. We managed to park in the drive to unpack all our luggage, but otherwise parked on the road with no problems. The downside for us personally about this property was that it was quite noisy - perhaps to be expected in the middle of a village. Barking dogs, a party one night nearby which went on very late and work being done on a neighborouring house whereby scaffolders arrived at 8.30am one morning with all the associated noise and workmens' radios.

    Dear Guest We are so sorry that there was an issue of noise for you during your stay, fortunately during our 5 year ownership we have never had a review stating noise was a problem, unfortunately we like anyone else have no control over neighbouring properties whether it be private parties or property repairs etc. We do hope that Jackdaw as a base to stay in whilst enjoying the area was comfortable, the garden area with gates is not advertised as a parking area but we have no objection for our guests to pull in to unpack if it makes life easier for them. We thank you very much for your comments and hope that one day you will return - kindest regards Owner Property Owner

The property

Perched on a quiet lane, close to the heart of the beautiful village of Blockley, rests this double-fronted, traditional honey-coloured Cotswold stone cottage, Jackdaw Cottage.

The cottage is the perfect base for a family or group of friends who are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and spend some time in an idyllic countryside setting in the Cotswolds.

Be greeted by the pretty courtyard garden bordered by shrubs and flowers, that has a sweet picnic bench.

The front door opens into the smart farmhouse-style kitchen/diner where you can listen to your favourite songs through the Bluetooth speaker whilst you put your culinary skills to the test using the electric oven and gas hob, and make use of the dishwasher for cleaning up!

Gather with your loved ones around the large pine dining table to indulge in your heart-warming meal and why not uncork a bottle of wine to toast to a wonderful holiday that lies before you!?

Have a relaxing evening in the beautiful sitting room whilst watching a film on the TV, as the warmth from the woodburning stove creates a lovely atmosphere in the air, or get some peace and quiet in the inviting snug room that sits adjacent to the sitting room which houses a large single sofa bed that is available on request.

Climb the stairs to the first floor where you will find two well-appointed bedrooms, the master contains a super-king-size bed (zip/link, can be twin on request), and a king-size room, both perfect for having a restful night.

A sofa bed is available upon request at £50 per booking, allowing the property to sleep a total of 5. Start your day off well with an invigorating rinse in the large walk-in shower before getting ready to head out for the day into the picturesque village of Blockley which has a country pub, The Great Western Arms, a historic Norman church, Church of St Peter and St Paul, and the popular community owned shop and café which serves delicious food during the day and hosts a couple of dinner evenings too.

Surrounded by wonderful countryside, there are many walks and cycle routes on its doorstep including The Monarch’s Way long distance walking trail which passes through the village and can be followed either north to Chipping Campden or up and over the ridge towards Moreton-in-Marsh, skirting the fringes of Batsford Arboretum which is a 56-acre garden with trees and shrubs from around the world in the plant centre and a café.

At Jackdaw Cottage, you are close to the bustling market town of Stow-on-the-Wold where you can take a walk around the market square, which is the heart of the community and offers boutique shops, tea rooms, pubs and restaurants, as well as the Farmers’ Market which occurs every second Thursday of each month, featuring inviting local produce.

For a perfect getaway, choose Jackdaw Cottage.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

BLOCKLEY

Moreton-in-Marsh 3 miles; Bourton-on-the-Water 11 miles; Cheltenham 22 miles.

An ancient village once famous for its silk and corn mills, Blockley lies just 3 miles from Moreton-in-Marsh and features a unique collection of honey-coloured buildings with a pretty village green, two excellent pubs, serving hearty food and real ale, as well as a village store and café, serving dinner on a Friday night. Many walks and cycle rides through the beautiful rolling countryside of the Cotswolds can be enjoyed from the centre of the village, with the Macmillan Way, Heart of England Way and the Gloucestershire and Monarch's Way all running close by. Very close by, Moreton-in-Marsh boasts many elegant 18th century buildings and is home to traditional inns, tea rooms, restaurants and individual shops to suit all tastes. It also offers its own train station and lies on the intersection of the Paddington rail line from London. The town hosts the Moreton-In-Marsh Show, one of the UK's largest one-day agricultural shows, as well as the Moreton Beer Festival, an annual French Market, and a large outdoor market every Tuesday. The highest town in the Cotswolds, this ancient market town has played host to many fairs since the 12th century and today holds a biannual Gypsy Horse Fair, craft fairs and monthly farmers' market. Close by is Bourton-on-the-Water, which lies in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is known as the Venice of the Cotswolds as the River Windrush runs through the centre. Also within reach is the spa town of Cheltenham, boasting an incredible range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants and pubs, as well as being famous for its horseracing festival in March, culminating in the Gold Cup steeplechase. Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon, Bath, Worcester and the waterfront city of Gloucester are also within driving distance, making Blockley a great base for a Cotswolds holiday.

For the comfort of future guests, we ask that dogs remain downstairs, stay off the furniture and that no trace of a dog remains after your departure. Pet supplement of £25.
