English Country Garden

English Country Garden: Wiltshire

In the heart of the quaint village of Sherston, this stylish cottage is the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds and beyond. Retaining much of its 17th-century charm, this home showcases many original features like high vaulted ceilings and painted beams. Combined with modern touches like a glass balcony and wood-burning stove, this home has everything you need for a cosy country escape.

Kick the day off with a full English breakfast cooked in the contemporary kitchen, before heading out to see what Wiltshire has to offer. The village has many footpaths and close proximity to the River Avon, making it the perfect spot for picturesque walks with the dog. The Southern Cotswolds towns of Tetbury and Castle Combe are just a short drive away, where you can explore ancient hill forts and Anglo-Saxon monasteries.

After an adventure-filled day, head home for an intimate dinner in the pretty garden. Cook your favourite barbecue foods on the charcoal grill, pour a glass of wine and take a seat on the patio. Post-dinner, have a long soak in the cast iron roll-top bath, or simply snuggle up by the fire.
