ROSE WALK COTTAGES - WHERE COTSWOLD CHIC MEETS CONTEMPORARY STYLE

Cosy Cotswold charm blends with cosmopolitan style and comfort at Rose Walk, a selection of luxury cottages which are now available for holidays.  The cottages are finished to an extremely high standard and retain many original features to create a quintessentially Cotswold feel, ensuring guests enjoy a relaxing and comfortable stay.

Rose Walk is an easy two hour drive from London and ideally located for the Cheltenham Gold Cup and Literary Festivals, the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) at Stratford-on-Avon and Hidcote Gardens.  The cottages are about two miles from Stow-on-the-Wold, and make a great base for exploring Cotswold villages and market towns such as Moreton-in-Marsh, Burford and Broadway.

The cottages sleep two to four people, and as well as offering stylish living and eating areas, feature sumptuous en-suite bedrooms.

The fully fitted kitchens have beautiful marble worktops, a Belfast sink, electric AGA cooker, fridge and dishwasher.  The sitting rooms provide the perfect space in which to relax and unwind, perhaps after a day of visiting local attractions or enjoying the countryside.  Inglenook fireplaces, wood burning stoves (an unlimited supply of wood is provided) and underfloor heating mean the cottages are warm and cosy even in the depths of winter.

Bedrooms are well-designed with luxurious king-size double or twin beds, offering flexible accommodation for families or friends, and all linen and towels are provided.  The bedrooms have soft, white painted furniture and exposed beams, and to ensure you get a good night’s sleep all beds feature memory foam pocket spring mattresses.

The beautiful bathrooms have power showers, and there’s also a free-standing bath in one of the cottages.

Flat screen digital TVs with Freeview and radio can be found in the sitting rooms and bedrooms, and telephones and broadband wireless internet are also provided so you needn’t feel out of touch.  

The Rose Garden
All cottages have direct access to individual patios in a private rose garden, which are perfect for al fresco dining on a balmy summer’s evening.  Garden furniture and parasols are provided and the rose garden is planted with scented roses from specialist grower, David Austin.

Within the grounds is a garden and laundry room with washing machine, drying and ironing facilities.  Dedicated off-road parking is also provided at the end of the garden for up to six cars.

Local attractions and events
Set in the small village of Upper Oddington near Stow-on-the-Wold, the cottages are ideally placed to explore the Cotswold countryside, an area of outstanding natural beauty.  Well located between the M4, M40 and M5 motorways, Rose Walk is easily reached.

The traditional Cotswold villages of Upper and Lower Oddington include great local pubs with excellent restaurants, while for those wishing to get out in the fresh air, the area has an abundance of superb walks so you can explore the villages, historic houses and gardens nearby.

And for those looking for retail therapy and pampering, Daylesford Organic Farm with its shop, restaurant, garden centre and holistic spa is just a five minute drive away.
