Owl Cottage Southrop

Owl Cottage is one of the five Grey's Court Cottages in the classic English village of Southrop, Gloucestershire.

Owl Cottage is a three bedroom, two bathroom cottage featuring a wonderful I & JL Brown four poster bed in the first floor en-suite master bedroom. Owl Cottage uses the Lewis & Wood’s Royal Oak and Gilpin Horses fabrics and wallpaper.

“Gilpin Horses” is based on six etchings from 1760 of the working horse by Sawrey Gilpin and is a charming design taken from an original wood engraving by the renowned Gloucestershire based artist, Andrew Davidson.

Both bathrooms have a cast iron roll top bath and also a large power shower. The hot water system is state of the art and provides copious amounts of hot water for simultaneous bathing.

Owl Cottage’s sitting room has a snug area, double doors to the kitchen hallway and a single door to the first floor master four poster en-suite; and like all the cottages the sitting room features a wood burning stove.

Barn owls can be regularly seen at dusk, hunting in the surrounding fields and hedgerows, hence the name Owl Cottage, and a painted shield coat of arms incorporating an owl adorns the fireplace.
