Converted from the mill house built for Bruern Abbey, Cope – a classic Cotswold cottage – has a stunning 30′ by 15′ library (with hundreds of books) come drawing-room and dining-room, with its high pitched roof and big Gothic stone fireplace has a light and elegant atmosphere; more chateau than cottage.
The large, pretty en-suite bedroom has a gleaming, dark polished wood floor, a high pitched ceiling and a 6′ bed framed by off white hangings. A door leads into a trellised terrace, where you can drink your morning coffee surrounded by Mediterranean scents of lavender, cistus and roses. The kitchen is flagged in Cotswold fossil stone from Farmington quarry nearby and is very well equipped for large or small-scale catering, with a range cooker, microwave, capacious US style fridge and freezer plus two dishwashers; necessary as although two people will feel cosy by the fire in the drawing room, the room can be transformed into a dining room for twenty or thirty for a lunch or dinner when you rent a number of the cottages.
