This beautiful farmhouse is situated on the outskirts of the popular town of Lechlade-on-Thames, in the Cotswolds AONB known for its rolling hills, picturesque villages and stunning countryside. The property is set in a peaceful rural spot surrounded by conservation woodland and wildflower meadows, perfect for walks. You can stroll into town to visit one of the traditional pubs or independent shops. Lechlade is located at the Southern edge of the Cotswolds, where the River Thames becomes navigable. You can enjoy walks along the riverbank, go boating, paddleboarding or simply relax by the water. The property provides a fantastic base to explore the wider area, with Burford (7.9 miles), Cirencester (14 miles), Bibury (8 miles) and Bourton-on-the-Water (16 miles) all easily accessible for day trips. For guests looking to explore the area’s history, visit one of the nearby National Trust properties, such as the 18th century house and gardens at Buscot Park 6 miles away or Kelmscott Manor- home of William Morris- only 3 miles away. There was a Roman Villa at the bottom of the farm drive, with remains on display in the Corinium Museum in Cirencester.

Make your way into the spacious farmhouse through the hallway, a perfect area to remove coats before exploring the rest of the property. Step into the sitting room, which is furnished with total comfort in mind, including a wood burner for those chilly nights. Move on to the fantastic open-plan kitchen/dining room, equipped with everything you will need for a self-catered break, including an AGA. Enjoy a meal together at the dining table that will comfortably seat 12. There is a useful utility area with washing machine and dryer and a boot room, a perfect place for the dogs and taking off muddy boots. Off the kitchen is a reception room with feature floor-to-ceiling windows and views out onto the garden. Relax on the large corner sofa or watch a movie on the Smart TV. This lovely sunroom has a separate mezzanine level which has a super-king size zip-and-link bed which can be made up as a twin on request. There is a further bedroom on the ground floor with another super-king zip-and-link bed which has a shower room with WC next door. Head upstairs where you find the principal bedroom with a super-king size bed and en-suite shower room with WC and bidet. There are a further three bedrooms on the first floor: one with a super-king zip-and-link bed, one double and one room with bunk beds and a spare trundle bed, plus the family bathroom which has a bath with shower, WC and bidet. The house is perfect for extended families and friends looking for some quality time together in the Cotswolds.

Outside you will find the large, fully enclosed garden which wraps around the house. The beautiful garden is well kept and provides a wonderful space to unwind. Dine alfresco on the outdoor patio, accessed through the kitchen/dining room, with its garden furniture and firepit. Enjoy some garden games on the extensive lawn including badminton and boule.
