Pear Tree Cottage - Self catering holiday cottage in Upper Oddington, Nr Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire, The Cotswolds, England - Sleeps 8

Pear Tree Cottage

Pear Tree Cottage is a fantastic contemporary holiday home of an exceptionally high standard that sleeps eight guests in four luxurious bedrooms with four shower/bathrooms. It is incredibly private and tucked away in a peaceful position with gated sweeping driveway.

There is a superb spacious luxury kitchen and living area which is ideal for entertaining, with an additional sitting room and study for relaxing and watching Sky Movies. The house is exquisitely furnished and a huge amount of care and passionate attention has been paid to every last little detail throughout.

The outside area is truly fantastic, where groups of friends and family can relax and entertain at any time of the year. It is one of the many talking points of the house with the bar area providing the perfect place for sipping champagne under the heaters on chilly nights; enjoying a barbecue in the summer sunshine or sharing a romantic moment gazing at the stars of a night whilst tucked up on a lounger in front of the incredible outside gas fire.

Oddington is a desirable village in the heart of the Cotswolds near to the historic market town of Stow-on-the-Wold. It has two fantastic pubs in walking distance of Pear Tree Cottage serving excellent food, namely The Horse and Groom within a minute or two's walk and The Fox at the opposite end of the village. Daylesford Organic farm shop, café and spa is nearby and there is a lovely walk through the village, taking you past the 11th Century church and beyond to the fields of Daylesford Estate and the farm shop and café (this is also a great bike ride). There are also many other lovely walks to enjoy locally through surrounding countryside and plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy including horse riding, golf and clay pigeon shooting.

The Cotswolds are popular all year round and renowned for beautiful rolling countryside, criss crossed with drystone walls and dotted with sleepy quintessentially English villages. There are so many lovely places to explore and plenty of attractions including historic towns with incredible architecture; magnificent houses and wonderful gardens.

Idyllic towns and villages such as Bibury, Stow-on-the-Wold, Chipping Campden and Bourton-on-the Water are just a short drive away and a little further afield you have the Roman City of Bath, Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham - all just waiting to be explored.

Short breaks (two night minimum) available all year.
